I wonder if this is a womb
or more like a tomb
in which I exist with a waiting
headstone and head phones
to hear my eulogy read to me

Is this really rain falling or
amniotic fluid and if it is
either / why does it burn?

We all exist with an umbilical
cord invisible being fed
whatever our environment
chooses to put on our
plates...

a lot of times becoming fed up

that's why I carry a bottle of
ipecac with me in case I need to
induce vomiting...
...sometimes I choose to "throw up"
so my mind can "grow up"
and not be stunted with fare that
doesn't appeal to me...but

goes down cause I have my
mouth open...

learning is inherent
curiosity is natural
so we all walk around with our
mouths open and umbilical cords
attached...

I find that sometimes people eat the wrong
things and let them become
cholesterol packets that
clog the thought passages and
live...just waiting to go into
an "arrested state"

(I wonder if they know that
less than half of society is CPR
certified)

I am of the opinion
even if you didn't want it that
it is a

travesty when it becomes
easier for people
to just be a "physical mass devoid
of critical analysis" and accept
whatever is fed them on silver plated
wooden spoons

living a splintered reality while
burning under acid rain and yelling for
help but not being heard
etching their pain on the headstone
that this life has provided them
because they have chosen not
to eat in moderation.
