why do these steel wheels not break beneath us all?
set on fire by the cumulative heat of 900 degrees
i have lungs of glass – with such fixed capacity and inelasticity
i sip air carefully to avoid the shattering caCOUGHony of destruction
damn this too comptetnet nose for wanting life so much
that it forces the scent of kneecap sweat
into my already confined mind
but at least this engulfing ache is empathetic
to all the godless jails
filled with innocent convicts
