I can watch the emotional viscera without any negative effects
Does this make me robotic?
I am able to listen as people read and vomit and cry
And merely admire their use of the word "Incognitive"
I am a hissing, spitting, whirring mass of existance
Barely excused as a human being
And I find my peace within this
What kind of stranglehold can you have on my soul
That makes me think suicide is the only way
To be justified in your presence?
Your disgust is evident in your body language
That you, with your scarred arms and self-pierced body
Is somehow far worthier of your ice cream pedestal
Drop some battery acid while you're at it, bitch
I hope they legalize Mary Jane so you can move on
To something heavier
And I can stop hearing about your pathetic new-age parties
Go smoke crack and get fucked while he's thinking of me
A little bit of self-worth might help you survive next year
But you didn't hear me say that
And to the rest of the audience
To the shoe-in receptacles of all this emotional bullshit:
If you approve then you're fools
If you reject me I'm wretched
For if you do not embrace the contradiction of a robotic moral highground
Then you've lost your first leg to stand on
Please tell me what you think

Pretty Powerful...
Intense narrative that compells & captivates in its depth...
Deliciously dark undertone that is justified in its expression of thought...
Well penned, well versed, well done!!!

your poems are so passionate! I can here someone saying this when I read it, and see... I donno, I wish I could ut this much emotion into my work.

In the first stanza it seems that you realize you have built the wall. Then in the second a level of self loathing is reached caused by the opinion of another? The third stanza seems a bit like a pity party. In the forth it is shown that no matter what anyone does for the subject, it will never be enough.
Very Good!! I really enjoy the way that the contradictions that live within us all are brought forth clearly, warts and all so to speak.
