Miscellaneous Scrutiny
By physicalgraffiti
-Do you ever think about committing suicide?
-Every god-damned day.
-Oh. So then I'm not crazy.
-Oh fuck no...You’re crazy. The point is you’re not alone.
...I'm trapped in this god damned fairy tale.
...I'm in a cell and I’m not making bail.
...Maybe I’ll open up, and maybe I’ll remain shut.
...Either path I choose, I end up cut.
Religious barriers protect the admired, the despised, and the forgotten.
Political barriers shelter the lost, the found, and the conformed.
Emotional barriers...
never,
remain,
established.
Death panics the living,
and life is feared by the dead.
Verbal Communication is now fired.
The position must been filled.
Now accepting applications.
