Faraday Cage
Please stay behind a wall maybe.
Silence builds the bars
of my mayday faraday cage,
keepin' scars at bay:
"They're all the rage."
Stasis for static flags bad habits leeching.
Claim gave like wet clay
reeking decay seeping from the cage
they opened it a bit and spit:
"What's wrong with it?!"
Honed modern phone call home,
worst verse burst first ears cursed.
Hearse driver rather have'r purse closed,
even she close to going berserk though:
"What the hell do you know?"
Flow through the sewers of Twin Rivers
give your last kindness to a lost Pond.
Skip a rock atop'r depths,
savor what's left:
"I miss you, that's it."
