my bones are brittle
and they shatter
under the pressure
of this vacuum state
devoid of witticisms
and obscure adjectives
just waiting to be opened
but when that fateful day
finally comes
my bones will be
settled at the bottom
of my loose skin
and I will learn
that the knowledge of
good and evil is not
without its price
and you pay for what you get
