I can see in my mind
A place that I would like to find
I can see in my past
My life shattering like glass

I have come from nothing
I have returned
It is myself
I have burned

I’ve taken a fall
into the depths
Trying to recover
But I haven’t yet

My weakness
took control
The remnants
of my soul
Want it back

Last leg last life
Can’t get this one right
But I cannot continue
With these thought patterns
Or no progress will be achieved

How to create a new neural network?
My synapses are so used to dependence
On a bottle that’s shattered
It feels as though nothing mattered
My ambitions are lofty yet scattered

I wanted to save the country
I wanted to save the planet
But I could not save myself
From turning into granite

I thought I had it bad
But that part is only beginning


This may not be my day,
But the dragon I shall slay.
I know I am winning.

That throbbing pain in my head
Won’t go away
Because of choices
I made yesterday

My shoulder hurts
My knee is fucked
My foot might be broken
Out of luck

Too transparent
that’s apparent
At least I’m not
Inhaling sarin
