I haven’t been outside in days
On some occasions the trees wave to me
I feel taunted
Taunted by the world I unwillingly exist in
Taunted by all the things I can’t have, all the things I can’t do
Taunted
It pokes at me
Pokes and pokes and pokes and pokes
And won’t fucking stop
It’s poked a million holes in my brain
All the fluid leaks out
I wonder why I can’t use it to water my desires
And grow them into my reality
Insert them into fabrication of my own volition
But I can’t seem to do anything
Bound at the wrists by capitalism
The insatiable greed of pigs
They consume it all as they grow and inflate and rest swollen in their wealth
Whilst the gurgling of my stomach is the lullaby I lay rest to
My dreams make less and less sense
Non discernible figures visit me
Beating their fists against closed eyelids
To be free
Oh freedom, freedom, freedom
The eye of the needle that passes through the camel
A passage so lonesome
Worn and torn and born into madness
Who birthed the universe
Seeping from the marbled fingertips of celestial beings
‘I think therefore I am’
I think thoughts upon thoughts upon thoughts
Where is the blade
To carve me free
Where is the eye to gift me sustenance
Fill me to overflowing
Where is the buyer
So I can sell my self
Where is the sanity
Where is the sanity
I plead
For it is not in sentience
Not in sentience
Nor these words
Nor in these words
I know
