Contamination

Contamination

A Poem by Neurosis

Contaminated thoughts 
contaminate things
contaminate objects
which also Contaminate things

Contaminated things 
must be left alone
buried under layers of thought
never mentioned
never shown

Wide lush fields 
hushed and concealed 
blocked by labyrinths with imaginary walls
surrounded by treacherous mountains 
with imaginary falls 

Say it again 
again and again 
over and over again 
Say it to yourself
say it out loud
say it again 
but never to the crowd

I'll say it again 
say it out loud 
Say it again 
till that feeling is buried in the ground

In this moment of introspection 
made up problems are the real deception
a quiet mind, 
I've forgotten what it feels like
