I Am Nothing
Hear my void
Buzzing
Tinnitus
Haunting my shadow
An auditory illusion
Trickery
Sorcery
Of time and space
Lights path complete
The final fizzle still sounds
Like a distant star
Gone
Still visible where you are
Haunted
Trapped
The phantom ear drum still vibrating
Long after
A confused drummer boy
Diligent and dutifully
Maintains the ceaseless snare
Trapped in the middle
Drum
Drumming
Engine buzz
Cruel
Disturbed
Deceiving
No course charted
No destination
Let me off this fucked up party cruise
40th birthday
Bashed
He sits
Alone on the deck
Unaware that the party is over
He drums
Someone please remove this child
His unrelenting monotones
Pains me
Even in death
I am rattled
These fools
They surround me
Don't see the shackles
Of this shadow vessel
Their joy torments me
In the mirror there is no judgement
There is nothing
