Been losing this struggle
This battle with life
And with nothing else better
To write
I am rife
With conflictual
Obstacles
Making it worse
And of course
They all say
It’s the way
Universe
Has intended,
Determined,
Discerned it should be
But how could it,
And why,
Would it do this to me?
Strip me bare
Without love
Nevermore
Naturally
Helplessly
Make me watch
As my friends fall apart
And allow me to botch
All attempts to restart
The malfunctioning system
Corrupt-data driven
So riven with viral
Can’t talk to me’s schism
