Numb Is The Color Poem by Kyle Schlicher

Numb Is The Color



unfeeling
is the standard bearer
of all
good and known truths

what hue runs the gauntlet
of
unsurpressed freedom?

buzzards
buzz
the beehive
freed from energy consuming activity

better to not know
than
to know and not care

i answered the questionnaire
with all honest intent

i have survived

my head does not feel
and
my heart does not care.
