Thoughts

No Control

I want to feel,

The thrill of running a red light.

The rush of subverting,

A one way road.

Endangered,

Reckless,

Caution, my foe.

At least my menace,

I can control.

The hostility,

Self-inflicted.

The violence,

By my invitation.

Rage,

My obedient servant.

Instead I lay here,

Dulled by the pain,

Of another’s actions.

Helpless,

Muted,

No control.
