Running in epileptic circles

my dreams that can't even escape

these malemetal mindtraps

securely locking up the bodies of the

evildoers happening to catch my soul

between the stainlesssteel and whitewash

and scratchy blankets on my cheek

my eyes sticking, body convulsing

and the Watchers! I can't take it

I feel my sanity quickly fleeing the beady

unblinking soulless inhumanity

black warts on the ceiling

I frantically count relying on obsessive compulsions

to sleep. I sleep out of the sour sweat of fear

but sleep only leads me to

running in epileptic circles

 

It was all taken

bare. that's how I was

naked labrat surrounded by

murderers

leaking sanity nastily

from artificial orifices

All the world part of perpetual seizures

running in epileptic circles
