what has this world come to?
laughs and nothingness
no reason for life anymore
maybe the universe was better
two hundred years ago
but it wasn’t
so why do i want to transport in time
to another place where it could be
as it was
without foreign exchanges

now i listen to the cliff side beckon for me
i can hear it so clearly
and falling is just like jumping
if i rolled down that cliff edge
this would all be over
but i’m not suicidal
i am just dehydrated from
all the lakes and streams
being ****** up through test tubes  
and drunk by the filthy mouths
of the wrongdoers
you could understand just how
justifiably mad i can and will be
my breaking point is so close
that i feel the tempered glass shattering
the tapestries are shredding
and my hands are melting
and becoming chimney soot
dripping from my pale and
weathered fingers
i was deliberately placed where i am
standing at this very moment
caught in some kind of shark fin
fishing net
struggling and on the edge of
letting my fins stop thrashing
and just accepting defeat
that my dorsals won’t be connected
to me anymore
and i have no purpose in this world
except to leave it
and to express my disappointment
what has this world come to?
