A Disturbance in the Force
I say middling because, well... continue reading and you'll see.

Work In Progress

Blinded by a thousand points of light
The beast is bound and caged
Poked and prodded, so coolly engaged
Degraded and deprived in an attempt at training
Until the handlers think there's no fight remaining

Indifferent to the beast's plight
And confident in the completion of their task,
The handlers remove their masks

While they assume their ascendancy is all but assured
As they clamber up their ladder's rungs
They revel in their corruption of the word,
Forgetting the skeleton key embedded in each of the beast's tongues...

C12H17N2O4P

Heroic dose,
Plus a gram for good measure
Not for the faint of heart, nor for leisure
Receptors consume, the threshold is close

Shifting walls, newfound categories permeating
Shuttered lids, unity radiating

Connected dislocation
The Universe, within a room
Can find no ego to subsume

Untitled Haikus

Bound by their own words
Wards of the superstructure
Wings clipped, gathered herds

A fork in the road
One name, two paths you can see
Love - One caged, one free

Self-loathing young man
Wrestling with his own shadow
To win is to lose

Untitled

Fangs set, feast away
Host withering unnoticed...
Virus buried alongside
A history loop,
Lessons to be learned

Untitled

Seeds of a war sown...

Emancipated puppets
Reject their blinders
And step away from the meat grinders

Masters left to fight alone
A new dawn rises
As humanity's cancer self-excises

(I'll fully admit that last one is clearly wishful thinking)
