So Facebook this
I was standing, thinking
hating and debating
over the latte
you made for me
if all of the things that bite
at you through the night
weighting, irritating
brought you to the point
of critical mass
would we expect an explosion
or a whimper?
Four more times I have sought
the answers
but only received the pain
of unknowing
unbinding, unmaking
deliverance without
choice
circumventing creation
we fought to give
you a voice
no remembrance of the
sacrifice
just here to entice
invading your life
little words that don’t
make sense
mete out today’s punishment
behind close doors
the computers hum
in our tune
embankment of solace and
solitude
no place for the weak or
the weary
Where is the promise
of what my hands may
make
may be my own
can you meet my
demands?
Uncertain causes I cannot
brush away with my
commands
drowning in the depths
of where you stand
living out loud
so you can lose
all of the things you wanted
to
just no explanations for what you
do
Ooh, like the allusion to T.S. Eliot’s ‘The Wasteland.’

Thank you Amaya. TS Eliot is one of my absolute favorites. A massive influence on me
