waiting, always waiting,
there's dissidence running through my veins,
an atavistic need to buck, to burn,
to howl into face of systemic maddness,
yet I have no target, no emeny other than myself,
this is why dogs chase their tails,
this is why I wait,
withdrawn from social encounters
polluting my body to bend my vision
in this stasis of anxiety and want
and I fear, for my life to have meaning,
I must find this shadowy antagonist,
this elusive modern foe
in order to function, to breathe,
to move past this evolutionary boredom
