❦→[analytic fool]

oh to be analyzed by a benevolent fool,
looking for answers on an empty slate
studying the structure as would some mathematical tool
not knowing,
not everyone is served food on a silver plate

i strangle the fool
with a rope of rebellion,
but let go when they say
"what is rebellion?
if you imply the same laws as us,
forcing your opinion"

but oh sly fool!
opinions that stab like lovers from the back,
are meant to be pushed and crushed
like hearts under slabs

is it so wrong?
if a rabbit tames the lion you fail to trap?
if you're sly, guile is my song
sung for achilles and against all that is wrong,
is it so easy?
if all your miserys are saved by a single day nap

we speak of the unspeakable,
to escape this tormenting room of our souls so self despicable
when inquisitors ban the loupes,
you shall learn to elope
from what was once our manic-serene adobe
go chase the liquor rivers out of this loop

we speak from our beds,
because sleep is death's cousin
beaten and blued over the years into shades of yellows and reds,
molting, but never being able to shed
since blood baths are hints only subtle,
crying into lightning
circling charcoal beneath shuttles,
may be the one anesthesia for angapesis

you, fool of a fragile ego,
someday when you let go
and fight the fright;
with thundering in the dead trees
you may then know
ways to analyze right

for some things are bound to be unseen,
so the addicts be privileged for once, to come clean.
