And So I Ran
The sky was clear and bright,
But my throat was closed with fright.
Anxiety at the future caused me to tremble,
Until no human did I resemble.
I needed a solution for my troubles here at hand, and so I ran.
My mind was filled with useless knowledge,
Things they say will lead me to college.
The fifties beats gave it to the man,
But I am powerless, and so I ran.
The world contains it myopic view,
Looks down upon those the few,
Who fear the emotional latch,
I have no desire to become attached.
I am broken and don’t think I can, and so I ran.
