Like a cage: stifling, overcoming.
No escape from reality.
Only babbling mouths, no minds- thoughtless.
Uttering noise; sounds
Of the flesh with no purpose.
Droning ideas flooding inward.
There is no sensory blockade.
Stop. Silence
So searing it screams of everything- nothing.
Liberty; Perfection.
Freedom that binds to emptiness,
Whiteness.


The author's comments:
This poem is describing the constant flow of people and ideas in life. When everything is so overwhelming that everything feels the same emotionally and blaming that on yourself. A state of wanting to feel everything, but becomes nothing; whiteness.
