They say mind over matter as if it is a good thing As if it is a good thing that my mind is taking over my body As if it is a good thing that my mind moves my mouth to say things I don't want to As if it's a good thing that my mind gets so cluttered I can't even see straight As if it's a good thing that my hands move to hit when I don't want to Or when I can't even leave my bed even though I have a thousand things to do Or when I start shaking uncontrollably, like the heart within me has cracked down the middle and shifted out of place like tectonic plates When my mind turns me into a walking earthquake, HOW is that ok?! They say mind over matter as if its OKAY for me to still cry about things that don't matter As if it's ok for Ruby Sparks to snap her fingers and bark like a dog MY MIND IS TAKING OVER EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS AND THERES NO WAY I CAN STOP IT My mind is not a sacred pure place, it it is dark and angry I can't change it so easily because controlling the thing that is in control is more complex than you think I control my arms with my brain, I control my mouth with my brain, I control my legs with my brain but how can i control my brain with my brain
I did some frantic writing in the woods today. God this is awful. I'll work on it.
