Panic Room |
Lustrous lines obscured by opaque blinds |
Frozen metacarpals tap, tap, tap, the window glass |
Syncopated staccatos with the broken clock |
Synchronized with my post-traumatic ticks, ticks |
Talking to the space in the room that echoes back indiscernibly |
To my disconnected self, self |
It’s self-consuming, what’s ensuing is my undoing |
The nightly casualty of war |
And it sounds like this, war, endless war |
In my endless dance with entropy |
I must rescind my sentience, the sickness that I know |
Rearrange the disarray of disintegrated senses |
Puzzle pieces, spectral splinters of a soldier’s worn and tattered soul |
In my endless dance with entropy |
I must rescind my sentience, the sickness that I know |
Machines of air looking down on us |
The beasts of dust as we grapple heel and hand |
Mud and sand, blood red oil |
The chaff of the harvest |
Converted to currencies of wealthy means |
Stepping stones cut from our perforated bones |
Riches are reaped beside our bodies |
Sown just to be thrown back again |
And forgotten if we stumble in |
Laid inside a homeless nest |
Stuck with eager dirty needles |
Shipped to an early steeple where boxes close |
Descend with grace as you defend yourself |
Both charitable and chaste |
Praise me for my valor, lay me on a crimson tower |
Justify my endless terror as my «finest hour» |
Treat me as a token to deceive the child |
Whom we fatten for this scapegoat slaughter |
I learned to fight, I learned to kill, I learned to steal |
I learned that none of this is real |
None of this is real, none of this is real, none of this is real |
But there’s a war inside my head |
Beleaguered by my breathing, choking, screaming, heaving |
Time drags me back to the desert (This is war) |
A child stumbles from the wreckage holding his salvation |
The trigger to cessation (To end us all) |
I took a life that takes mine |
Every quiet moment we collapse |
Have you forsaken us? |
All the darkness comes alive |
Take my hand, drag me to the void |
