as I scream
in agony
they pull out
my arms
and legs
while I howl
in excruciating pain
then as they
remove
my internal parts
I lose consciousness
such is life
brutal
the same way
chicken is plucked
and killed
existence
finishes us.

so I recognise humilty
and respect it
because it has
nobility of character
and I live by its values
its humanity
and this makes me
so strong
I lose all fear
confidence becomes
a sea I swim
making my
illnesses meaningless
and telling me
I am a god
I will live forever.
all the time
wandering places
in my mind
and then I
come back home
but I am not
the same
several times
this morning
I had drifted
long distances
across time
and space
and was standing
in the dawn
in the clearing
darkness
in another location
and now from
my house
here again
I see the light
getting brighter
and brighter
with my old eyes
and my cold fingers
are the only things
I recognise
after all these years.
you go up
then you
come down
you only have
a dice in
your hands
that can take
you anywhere
sometimes
you win
sometimes
you lose
you are at
the mercy of luck
you are its slave
and anything
can happen to you
one moment
you’re alive
next you’re dead.
mania is coiled
like a serpent
in my brain
and I lose my trail
from moment
to moment
life doesn’t help
it is fast asleep
totally indifferent
and here I am
thrown against
walls again
and again
screaming
in bewilderment
bleeding
in pain
and I feel calm
only as I die
because
I become
a bird
and begin
to fly.
you make me want to whip you
I was in such a mess this morning
my brain kept coming out of my ears
and it was such a struggle to push it back in
I am still in pain my eyes cloud over
and blood starts flowing out of them
soon I can’t see anything and run
till I feel dizzy and fall
beginning to lose consciousness
I know my body is there
but it weakens and death
takes my last breath.
the world can seem
in a moment
like all human rage
and violence
were directed
against you
slowly vapourising
your body
your mind
rags of language
are of no use
when everyone
looks strangely
at you
as though you
were some
mythical creature
come to existence
to fade away
only you know
the pain
only you know
how it feels
to lose your life
because it is yours
and no one else’s
only you know
these evil people
their network
how they work
trying to kill you
and you die
fighting them
now with your
near invisible fists
throwing punch
after punch
at this
multitudinous
devil.
some strange call
in the middle
of the night
and then I wake up
at 4 am
then I sleep
in the evening
past my bedtime
and wake up
and have dinner
and my medicines
and then it’s
difficult to sleep
and again
my eyes burn
at their corners
and my body
is sluggish
O this world
is nothing
but rubbish.
oozes through
the world
like sewage
and there
are demons
clawing
at your flesh
as you fight back
but it is of no use
in the end you lose
an arm
a limb gone
your groin your head
plucked off
and your life is over
like grass cut
by a lawnmower.
