The despair of a muscle pumping with ragged beats
Against the chest it thumps raving to get out
Suffocated confused deluged with delusion
One moment tenderness the other fire it spits
Give me away no don’t give me away
It rants its feverish chants
Rest of the body held hostage by the string
Left of center the center of the circus’s ring
A meditating soothsayer
Behaving like a lunatic master puppeteer
Unleashing the stampede of a million wildebeests
With a new found taste for gambling
Setting rational madness and irrational beliefs scrambling
Trading an ounce for an ounce
Greedy only to give away be ripped out and find peace
At the moment of its seven pounds
