The snakes are coming for me
Coiling telecommunication wires wrapping around my sleeping legs
I try to escape my apartment without alerting sentinels
Making my attempt at an ungodly hour
When most would be spies are subdued by sleep
The doors and windows are too obvious
I take my Sawzall and gut my chosen wall
The Sheetrock spills out miles of electrical intestines
Sparks hissing in frustration
White tubes writhe from the pressure of venting heated air
The blistering craft work and extruding plumbing
Enclose me in a stifling maze of claustrophobia
The gears of civilization clicking into the puddle of my equilibrium
I lose footing and brace my self on the desk to the left of me
In the desperate grab of my descent i accidentally smash into keyboard buttons
This triggers the melting of my screen saver
The Computer screen comes to life in a yawning of fluorescent light
Silicon idol awakening to mock me
Shining rays of supremacy
In a near blinding dazzle upon this room heavy with darkness
The eye of my master scolding
Voltaic Shepard ensnares me with mono-molecular string
Chocking me out
Strokes this sheep back into bed
There I wish to dream of running free
Into the natural embrace of an airy chaparral
