sharp whistles lurk inside me
trying to break themselves free
collapsing agony they bring
another poisonous mind sting
.
sights of green trees
relief of aching fees
darting in my brain
corrupting with disdain
.
industrial noises that click
silent like a breaking stick
snapping deep like phantoms
a party of silent praised atoms
.
dragging my soul into the abyss
another lost stone thrown in bliss
coin dropping into a lonely well
emotions escaping without farewell
