"deadlocks" poems
*Having hardships in life is somewhat
we all have to face .
No matter how positive we foresee our lives ,
struggle towards serenity is never effortless.
We all are embedded in deadlocks of life.
Without ENDURANCE & TOLERANCE
we will collapse in gyration of dilemma.*

The mind and heart switch roles
For reasons to stay untold
Silently screaming chest
Racing and quivering head
Thoughts whip light speed modest
Body barely leaves its bed
Unhappy for nothing
Motivated for nothing
Paralyzing deadlocks,
Anxiety's Paradoxes

Suspicions and mistrust
run high
so we hold ourselves tight
dread locked and buy
deadlocks for the doors
and deadlocks for the deadlocks
in case anyone tries to steal those too
then circle the whole thing with a moat
and from inside we burn the bridges.
We watch our backs
our fronts, our wallets
our mothers, but
oh mother, especially
our wallets
because that is how we speak
now.
We speak
not with words but with money
and self expression is a valuable thing
and it’s a crime to keep quiet.
At two in the morning
the police come to knock on your door
to chide you and remind you
that a number value is
very relatable.
You want to be related to,
don’t you?
They go on to tell you just how valuable
it is and was (before inflation)
because
we’ve been tracking it
with google statistics.
You’ll find all the details
in the police report.
