wardens in the prison of the body

Scream! At the piles of rust!

Scream! At the heaps of misery you created!

Scream! At the brittle bones you left to dry in the sun!

Scream! At the corpses left hanging from the string of so-called sin!

You brought the beast out of the cage!

You let it kill the oppressed!

And now you try to feed it more!

Scream! At your inhumanity!

    i sit and stare out the window

    stare out the window at the brown dead grass

    the dirty snow melting into muddy slush

    the mud that is criss-crossed and destroyed with ruts and tire tracks

  • face

    my face is a cage

    and the doves inside are suffocating

    in a pile of their own shit

     

    my arms are broken wings

    and their featherless forms are useless

  • house

    in the mud,

    in the dirt,

    in the silt,

    in the pores of the earth,

    with the worms,

    the moles,

    the bugs,
