What is it to be latched to the manacles of a love never lasting?
Now, what is it to be latched to a bed post while daddy smiles
crudely and the atrocity that are his hands no longer conjure
the memories of times when their embrace meant security, love
and all the other taken for granted pixels of life that combine to
make a person whole, not forgotten, and accepted amongst
the eternal rat race of an ever growing humanity so connected
by social networks, slowly disconnecting ourselves from the
delicate art of touch. And yet the touch of the one shackled to
the bed will never be lost within the fragile geometry of their mind.

to follow them, except within this circle there is no Virgil to guide one
through tempestuous seas exorcised by the gods of circuitry and

We have become Nero playing the most beautiful music on a brittle fiddle
while Rome burns and the screams of the dwellers drown out the paragon.

being scrutinized, this is not lost in the gentle silence between the clicking noises
of my keyboard. I am slave as well, confused but thoughtful and trying to figure it out.
