Shut in - open out

No one sees inside the dynamic escapade
the resides behind my eye’s
inside intolerable pain
swirling with disappointment
in a flood of waves
rolling over
diminishing hope
sadness seeps into the silt
and its built to spill
happiness is an illusion
bought from black market chemists
the best of us
turn out to be the worst
and what was once white
turns black
as hearts
and art suffers
as the economy grows
and souls become shallow
we are what we consume
and we have shoveled shit
for so long
and all the
questionable revolutionaries
sing the same song
where is truth
and reason
when does passion
stop seeming like treason
I want to believe again
in anything pure
but in this life
the absurd
seems to be the only one
not disturbed
into hiding behind
a smock
or glasses
expensive cloths
or oak desks
inside fancy offices
in prime real estate buildings
in the perfect part of the city
and they travel home
inside there cars
that define them
till they are possessions
and possessed
and i might as well be deceased
because ears are to deaf to hear me
so I will take my sad sub-soprano tone
and talk to the wild
or just live in print
for eye’s
and whats behind them
and if its a sin
to be unknown
i would rather remain
anonymous
