    F*cked Up

    Troubled?

    Why yes,

    I am.

    The bitter taste of human evolution,

    stabs me with convulsive anxiety.

    The trap they set for my soul --

    readied to cower like a cornered fox.

    Each day is a new wound.

    Each day is more of my martyred blood.



    Disturbed?

    Why yes,

    I am.

    Can't you feel it?

    The silence?

    The noise?

    The stir in the air?

    I can hear the banshee mourning for my murdered consience.

    Oh Thoth,

    do you have any more parlor tricks to quicken me once more?



    F*cked up?

    Aren't we all?

    Great poem. The angst is palpable and your ending is pure sin.

    Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.

    Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
