Rabidwire
i know the meaning of life
i keep it in one of those plastic balls
from the machines in the fronts
of supermarkets
i've never actually seen it
even though it's in my possession
i'm terrified of it, to tell the truth
it could be a monster
or maybe a rose
a thorny rose
it could be a great black cloud
that gobbles us
our pain
our fear
our lust
our lives
for breakfast every morning
(hey, mikey! he likes it!)
it could be Nothing
which would be far worse
we could mean nothing
we could be nothing
and all this energy
would be wasted
i feel i'm justified in my terror
don't you think?
