War of Subjection
Denser than the body
Deeper than the poems
Disease is a chronic hobby
The mind ostracizes the prose
I have grown fond of the villains inside my head They beg me to give them credit for my dread Life is boring without someone to show me the ropes And your leap of absence fabricated the death of my hopes It is as if you died If we are all different Then not one of us can confide If we are all a godsend Then how come everyone does not feel alive We all perceive our own reality So what does it matter who we marry Or who to call Lord Or which sports team to root for All wars fight over differences of subjection We could use our opinions for something more productive Let us build off of each other so we can all be inventive Perhaps some of us have been doing so already But I am so addicted to generalizations Grouping similar attributes together to make believe That I am anything but a separate entity Completely condemned to loneliness entirely
