A smile, a wink, or a nod
are all things I look for when
I hunt for an escape from the facade.
Almost daily through the din
of social contracts and evil grins
and people who only want to win
a silly game of baseball, I cringe
at the light in peoples eyes, so dim
and removed from our childish whims.
I guess life sucks it out of you
like a busy queen bee who
consistently has to lose
offspring to the vicious coups
of a man who dislikes black and yellow hues
mixing in his garden of greens and blues.
She sends her drones out to certain death;
she wouldn't be able to live if she didn't disconnect.
