Communication 141

Repeat

gears grinding, churning, spitting
the same old pipe is splitting,
the identical key in the same ignition,
repetition after repetition,
this isn’t the life you envisioned,
too much
division
on
the
television,
the same
anger
fights
frustration
broadcasting
on every
radio
station,
this isn’t the life you want,
you’re the deviation,
an alien among the population,
patience is at an all-time low,
a billion lives locked in limbo,
the strangle-hold of the mundane
continues to constrict your airwaves,
you can count the hours
minutes and days
but they’re all the same
they’re always the same,
we repeat without question,
we repeat without suggestion,
the metaphorical cogs and springs
are breaking and disintegrating,
the system is forever dictating,
depleting and repeating
taking you from me,
breaking you and me,
we repeat to
deplete
indefinitely
