Changing The Game
The Need To Disappear
Hey you! You say you want to get out of here, check out of Dodge and disappear?
Well then,
ignore that text
put down the phone
it's not complex
to find your own
to become lost
or
disconnected
you're at a cross-road
redirected
Mentally -
gone on vacation
rejected
society's narration
a body
and soul
deep castration
where
physically
you’d been frustrated
escaping
reality is fine
closing your
eyes
changing your mind
rewrite
the book
shed your
disguise
and find
your
nook
your
secret prize
your
saving grace
just change
your name
the one you donned
to play the game
with those things gone
it's not
the same
YOU'RE
not the same
to anyone else
finally
you get to be
YOURSELF
loud and bold
or
quietly soft
no i's
to dot
no t's
to cross
a bright crisp page
without a mark
no numbing ache
to bear the cross
you win the game
when you get lost
a claim to fame
at any cost
