They cage the animals at night
And once again when sun is bright
In cages gray and bleak and tight
Until the strong have lost their might
...
In the space between nothingness my heart lies
In the empty languid stillness
In this box of cold silence
Curled, curled, curled,
...
It oozes in on you
A suffocating black tar
Seeping into the cracks
of your soul
...
