#noncomformity
I am not stupid or incapable Although my mind’s daily deviations Attest to errors and tricks in mine skull Of delusions – and every day tension Within the crannied pockets of my brain Watch the undeniable enmity Between the bird and the compelléd reign Of darling overlords and tricksome she But I will pretend, though it be in vain, That the chainéd bird does not wish to fly But instead hand to them the keys – my bane – And never dare yearn beyond the fake sky Goodbye to heart, to soul, to winsome dreams For I, instead, will do what they do deem.
