Body

In my own right

Don't transport messages of fear!

Because I am ready, and my wants do leer.

And if I blunder, allow me to roam.

For I will be decided

At least, I know that I did it on my own.

Is it foolish of me?

To believe my body is within my power.

My mind violates my intuition

therefore I grasp on to lies it makes up.

I am transfixed on being pious for appeasement.

When all that does is gnaw at my sanity.

Inconclusive conclusions didst overlay.

Thence, I prepared myself with spikes

for the uncertainty that lies ahead.
