The little boy with sad eyes

Looks out windows with latches

Freedom is only a state of mind



The borders of sanity are bleached white with pain

To the tips of the needle that come

crashing down upon his fragile body

From the walls that suffocate with disease and death



He is not lost, but rather complexed

In this bitterness of twisted disgust

Foam rises from the heavens and penetrates

shock treatments into his frail existence



For its entrance is tarred with swampy punctures

Fissures that burn unmendable tangents

into the core of existence



The doors are all broken now, and the

replications have all ran out of neurotransmitters

Gunshells dream of earlier days of touchless virginity
