wardens in the prison of the body

Scream! At the piles of rust!

Scream! At the heaps of misery you created!

Scream! At the brittle bones you left to dry in the sun!

Scream! At the corpses left hanging from the string of so-called sin!

You brought the beast out of the cage!

You let it kill the oppressed!

And now you try to feed it more!

Scream! At your inhumanity!

    my face is a cage

    and the doves inside are suffocating

    in a pile of their own shit

     

    my arms are broken wings

    and their featherless forms are useless

  • house

    in the mud,

    in the dirt,

    in the silt,

    in the pores of the earth,

    with the worms,

    the moles,

    the bugs,

  • life, probably

    what is the meaning of it all, anywho?

    is it part of some grand scheme, some astral plot

    to make us whole again

    some day far from now?

    perhaps, on the contrary, there is nothing;

    are we born simply to exist?
