Literature Text

screaming quietly, i watch the world pass,
moving at its chosen pace, nobody can follow.

i laugh, but to myself, amazed at how i can do nothing,
i have fallen back, with my head to my feet, i have.

a stampede, migrating to a world of impossible ideals and hopes,
a fantasy lies hidden beneath the calm sorrow of humanity.

thought is past, just a mindless herding of drones, not unlike cows,
a graceful surrender of choice, of significance, just acceptance and bond.

i watch, i understand, but cannot believe,
will not accept, and will not bond. for one heartbeat, i am me.

breath is proof of life, but a prelude to death,
i await an ending that must overpower the present.

i await the paradise, beyond the journey.
an observation that disappointed.
