Cries Of A Broken Spirit


 


My mind is divided split in portions of five and is served chilled and frosted for the world to devour.

 Attached to my hands are fingers, which are numbed solid as they crack and peel, while pounding the keyboard as it translates these thought filled words.

The members of all my parts have been broken and battered and time has shown little compassion for my being.

I wonder how in this world, where money is worshiped and sanctified does a poor man stand a chance in this merciless arena called life.

All I have to give is located in the upper left portion of this earthly vessel, which sits inside a cavity of tissue surrounded by tissue and bone, however even my heart becomes hardened as the density of stone.

Who has an ear to hear the mangled story of my life, which contains shattered and fragmented pieces of memories that are stored within the corridors of my consciousnesses.
