Stuck in an elevator
Why won't it move? Stuck in a place Derogating my conscious Paranoia in a box Caged me in this floor Why won't it go down? Why won't it go up? Clawing the box to find a way out Insanity devouring my mind These ghastly thoughts of escape So futile so inevitable Won't anyone come down for me? Save me from the depths of this building? This tall building holding the wire To the box of pandora caging my hopes Cut the wire with your blade Free from this inferno of loneliness Darkness frayed my skin Wrinkling in the density of my tears Aging by the minute stuck in this elevator I press the buttons Nothing opens I cry for help no one comes Lost in a city so small In a box so big Filled with shadows of wariness Wary of being there Stuck in the elevator. |

QUOTE(Yentot @ May 19 2006, 10:04 PM)  I press the buttons Nothing opens I cry for help no one comes There are times when isolation invokes images of paranoia. This work masterfully addresses the frailty of the human psyche when pushed to its limits. I'm reminded of Wynona Rider in the movie Girl, Interrupted when I read this. |
