May 2016
Paralyzed Satellite
Circles
, and now I am dizzy
Faint pulse tells me to right my wrongs
To spill my soul into the void of space
Circles
, and now I am weightless
It seems a shame to leave this world
To the sick, sheltered, shame of its own devices
Circles
, and now I'm incomplete
Drifting further from myself, I am staring
Into the eyes of a broken down satellite
Circles
, and now I'm forgotten
The truth is a vacuum in which I don't exist
While my fingers grow numb at this endless cold
Circles, always circles*
Encircling time and encircling throats
There is no more life, and there is no more death
