Caged for Life

Oh god, it is only now that I am beginning to get frightened about the trip... What was I thinking? But more than that, and overriding everything in the overwhelming twist of the mirror when my mind's eye spits into that of reality an then must be punished infinitely for its disobedience And loathing is constantly barking at the heel of my will, and i summon my strength to keep the sheets tucked in tightly around the corners...

I will be caged for the rest of my life, but I still can't get used to life through a grid or the distance of the bars. And so my soul turns pale and routine tastes like salt and I will runaway with more luggage than I can carry where I will only die of typhoid (oh, no! I got the vaccine...)

And I saw Jekyll and Hyde (something's got to happen now or something's gonna give).

Okay. TV will add to the horror. Gotta go stare at HBO.
