2/22/2003

They came
and got me
in the night
while
I was sleeping
took me away
tied me up
and
kept me there
long after
I
pissed and shit
all over myself
using some dossier
carefully put together
with the
salient details
for seeking out
through weaknesses
I thought
no one knew about
my will to live
they did their
skillful best
to
rip the thing
from its mooring.
Though deeply hurt
they failed
to convince me
I would be
better off dead.
Disgusted
with their failure
they put me back
where
they found me
fouled and forlorn
to sleep it off
if I could.
