Eating Meat off the Bone.

you stop looking around
and the ground sits still
but you lay your head on that soft grass
and the earth keeps on spinning
without you.
you stop looking around
and things make a little more sense in your square
things start to look great in that cube
but what can you do in here
in that box?
but play with rules
and distractions.
i feel that box closing in
and want to spread my arms out
to stop it
and i can
because i'm strong enough to figure it out
and not let that box
get the best of me
that's the point
is not letting your face
bleed into your mouth
and adrenaline taste nice
on these hot
quiet
dark nights
when nothing else can make you happy
but silence
and lack of humans
circling you like vultures.
saying "leave me alone"
makes them sad and cry
makes them think about where they screwed up
but not saying anything
that deep silence
only lets them say
"fuck him. lets leave"
and you do
and i get what you want
and so do you.
it's beautiful
isn't it?
