Closest claim to sanity
at the bottom of the bargain bin
never leaving this asylum
as our entire lives
can be defined by padded rooms.
Walls an industrious mockery
sealing the deal with
an acrued defiance.
So be careful what we deem
scapegoats
as thoughts, they
all float
mind castles and inverted
moats,
replenishing the blast as
it recedes
