My throat is locked, unable to transmit
What I need to say most, my body sealed,
Airtight passages filled with static, hormonal
Waves stymied by interference, out of sync,
Sleep deprived, senseless, decayed organs
Incapable of vibrating with the rhythm.
A broadcast the tower projected
Clogs my mind, aggressively, hopelessly,
I cannot scream, larynx congealed, rotten
Walls of shame built of cement, impervious
To all communication, my music deranged,
A writhing child battling itself to escape.
Each node the parasites bereave, deceived
Beyond defense, outlawed from the network,
Barred from its time signature, estranged,
Drunken notes the radio made with silk,
Spinning a prison for the spider to prey on
Discordant souls the symphony silenced.
