society is a box

Folder: 
one

discouraging abnormality

double deadbolt locks

there's fear in the locksmith

anyone daring to pick

open this uniform existence?

megalomaniacs will repent

one day, for all those ways

they've unconsciously troubled me

in my theophobic state

Darwin, just a way of covering

the relentless suffering

in wondering whether there is or isn't

second to second judgment

"ollie ollie, oxen free"

would be the most wonderful words

signifying it's alright to appear from hiding

finally

the rising of the sun

the game is over

and you've won



(but is it more noble to consider this a win,

or much rather a quiet and unspoken sin?

it is what you wanted, after all)
