'How are you?' She asked.
It was a question that would've required some college-level math and about an hour of discussion to answer. I felt a hundred conflicting things, the great bulk of which cancelled out to equal cold and tired and not particularly interested in talking.


I hate the vessel 

But loathe the soul

Unable to alter it

Stuck - forever, pulling me down

If I could tear it out I would

bury it far from light

Live shell-like, difference unnoticed

Puncture holes in its box so it might not die

Masking motivation

that I want someone to care and dig it back

Return it to its body

Telling both they are loved
