Imprisoned 
Captured 

Lonely people creeping dangerously close to relief. 
Living in castles, imprisoned in their death like sheets. 
Stranded and abandoned in the solitaire of life. 

Why do we sit here and hurt each other? 
Why stand in flowers and speak of mud? 

Impostors slandering their good names with faeces. 
Dribbling lunatics on edge, let me dive into 
the river; 
Let me drive into the water. 

Cascading, mystic monuments 
of strongly scented stone idols 
Creating under pressure 
Destroying as relief. 

Why mock the desert sun 
when we only want to breath? 

Troubled, doubled spirit gently 
caving in to pressure. 
Holy Bible writing in the 
mood for something new.... 

I wait here. 
I cringe. 

Vampires of death float around me. 

Helpless in the skin, helpless in the mind. 

Why trust the man in suit and tie 
when tie chokes and cuts off blood 
to brain? 

Wounded chocolate animals parading 
in the streets; dipping, slipping dolls 
with lemon tart for eyes. 

They see into us. 

We are marooned in a chalking of deceit. 

You lied to me, I lied to you. 

Lt us embrace one another. 

Let us buzz each other in. 

And frolic no more 
in the mind. 
And stroll no more 
on the road. 

Implode upon the mind. 
Let the rendezvous begin.
