Quarantine Frailty

Quarantine Frailty

Compromise what lies behind,
for there will be no genocide.
Use the lever that I have placed,
to eject you from this race.
Staple shut your paper heart,
before it really gets torn apart.

can't you see what's happening?
or understand completely?
I'm just pulling you down from that cloud
before you realize that it's not really there.

Frozen chimneys hold no heat,
none to warm your so cold feet.
Liquify what you concentrate,
you can still escape this hopeless fate.
Evaporate what you have left,
use it to rain where love isn't deaf.

This switch will turn on this loud machine
to wake you from this fate-less dream.
Follow the instructions on the back of your hand,
that I have written out for you my dear friend.
incorporate your thoughtless fevers,
and control them out of tears.

the cave is empty, the bridge is incomplete,
there is nothing here, can't you see?
the paintings on the wall were unintended,
they were there way before your presence.
Don't get sick again, please I beg you.
Please don't jump the bridge, you'll never continue.
