There's too much noise.
It clumps around my retinas,
keeps me blind,
but this is inhibition.
I don't want to hear you.
There's nothing worse
than the sound of incomplete
and silent aching,
so give me noise.

I am not a robot.
You would believe the opposite,
but I devour the humanity you leave behind.
The world outside of our cages is cruel
and condescending.
Mom and Dad don't know how to tell their kids
that we won't live forever,
