          I can't unlock one's mind;
          when distant there it lies
          of guarded killer fence
          no sympathy allies;
          nor bit allowance kept
          for foreign slight touches,
          on swelling of its skin
          from burning pride matches;

          since all explaining
          of false perception;
          does cut so deep
          from words' intention;
          of nothing more
          than lighting deeds,
          its darkened rooms
          of lifeless trees;

          not for death occupies
          the very depth it hides,
          but for the rotten wisdom
          of dull, combusting mind;
          maybe it's buried long
          my verses can't uncover,
          maybe its chains would weigh
          to break my heart-levers;

           hence never will I
           be scrapping out trash;
           that clogs their leakage stink
           to free from mind rash;
           whoever they'd be,
           my wisdom's my heart;
           won't heal their beliefs
           since it's where too I start.
