Society's Nutcracker: A Poem
Beneath my skull
And it's so hard to try and hide
Cause it's all plain and dull
So I will take all that I find
Stuff it inside
Because when I'm dead I'll have the time
To breathe in the outside
The bones pop and churn apart
Jigsaw fallen from a table
The pinkness underneath - the mind I carry
Looks pale and grey versus the fable
They come quick and long -long pins in hand
Sneak and prick my brain
They joy in the sight - the contortions of a man
Feed do they from the sight
Screams fall short of helpful ears
No sign of relief
Only, can I, loose the tears
Like laws onto a thief
With an eternal sigh of self pity
I wish for death
But no one from this city
Will ever care when I have left
