In pain; then, the dream
Was to “be born once again.”
Now, to try is vain, when—
There’s no more dream.

Loneliness is this crowd.
Meaningless is the found.
It sips in a solo darkness,
As everybody else sleeps.

Alive, but in deep conflict,
With the emotional instinct.
And not even in my prison
Can I afford my reason.

I’m too used to hurt, and
To qualm as improvement.
I’m happy to smile, while
The clown cries in lament.
