disconnected

The see-saw is askew
And I want to ask you
Why are you still crying for balance?

Distractions are blinding
Terrors normalised in
A world which is bursting with absence.

It’s a lopsided space
This isn’t an equal race
Neutrality is just your pretense.

Your eyes will grow squinted
Your opinions tainted
And this is how the world really ends.

How can you look at a carpet
And ignore the threads?
Ah, but it is just a rape.
