She’s posting all the time,
\nbut the boards are down; like a burnt-down building.
\nHe spends all of his time
\non his back, staring at the ceiling.<\/p>\n
They spend themselves that way,
\nand I’m with That, I’m with them
\nbut you’re not. You are alive.
\nDamnit.<\/p>\n
* * * *<\/p>\n
She just ignores the time
\nthat the boards came down; it’s a burned-out feeling.
\nHe just accepts the pain
\nwith a hate mantra; a spiritual killing.<\/p>\n
They just relax that way,
\nand I’m with That, I’m with them
\nbut you’re not. You’re still alive.
\nDamnit.<\/p>\n
Gnawing at the prey, I think about you some;
\nWhere to put you?
\nAll that backed up data for a raining day.<\/p>\n
Insulate a fragile mind,
\nCapsulize your broken find.
\n“Don’t do this man,”
\nThere’s another one behind,
\nBreaking down the door without warning.<\/p>\n
I get the same result,
\nWe all get the same effect.<\/p>\n
Can’t go through this now;
\nI’m leaving a message
\nStapled on your head.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
