I
secret machines
fill the space
cracks leave
torn concrete
broken ground
forgotten
gears turn
energy flows
words tumble down
cannot breathe
through the night
heavy with fear
and loathing
cannot see
through the darkness
empty rooms
and hallways
cannot be
more than who I am
to please you
secret machines
listen to
the turning
grinding the song
into dust.
