Exercise Your Futility

Forget crawling for distance
I've slowly grown
Tired of inspiration
Trying to catch my breath all alone
Dramatic diseases
Have frozen my lungs
For my children to read
In silence

Painted my muses black
To compensate I'm cutting off
All communication
Taping mouths shut and asking them
Personal questions

Scream with affirmative
You know who you are
Sign if a motivation
That hits the muscle would cause you alarm
Sold by the brick emotion
Would crush all the bone
Our shouts leaving our bodies
Stiff on its own

Painted my muses black
To compensate I'm cutting off
All communication
Taping mouths shut and asking them

Ain't I
Misshapen and soiled
Meager, I point the light at you
Instead of silence
Disconnecting yourself is how I misconstrue
Everything

Cold stare and forgo the distance
That made it a game
Locked in ceremonious dances
Of polemic discourse
You cancelled your credit
Sold all you lies
Deep in that shadow

Painted my muses black
To compensate I'm cutting off
All communication
Taping my mouth shut and asking them
Personal questions

Red and fallow
I'll appoint it
When it ices
I'll approve it
We can't get on
I don't belong
We can't get on
I don't belong
