Although I am
surrounded by people
the sensation of
being #alienated
is so strong
I do not fit anywhere
not here or there
and although
there is talk and
laughter
all around me
I feel none of it

Although I am

Should we meet again
A renaissance of the best
And wounds of the worst

So much throughout life
Seemed against own confirmed views
Alienation shows
Refurbished reputation
(At least what could be salvaged)
Through steps towards awakening
Ascending stairs despite despairs
But without that pernicious crutch
Mediated throughout
By encounters with the alienated
Flesh still bears the wounds.
Alienated, abused
Mind screwed, and misused.
But this old fool’s soul sustains.
Lingers, bathed in shame.

In the high tower
she speaks only to herself
for none will listen.

Alienated
So long, bleeding acid, face
Hugging xenomorph.
