Angry Voices, Chirpy Voices

Excited Voices, Expert Voices.

I wish I could turn them off

Like the remote control of a TV.

Dodging my way through the voices

I search for the prize, my Light

But the voices are so many

One-eyed sperms, they obstruct my way

I dodge, I jump, I twist

I do more acrobatic turns than Anderson Neo

And I get ahead of the voices.

Oh thank god! I breathe fresh air. 

But wait! 

Now they are after me, these voices.

I run and run.

Towards Light. Nirvana. The Prize. My Goal?

The voices keep on trailing me.

The path ends abruptly.

I fall off the edge.

Down and down

In a deep dark abyss.

No light. Surely the voices can't see me?

I can't see them.

Quick, that rock!

I hide behind

No voices, excited or annoyed.

Angry quirky happy flappy

None.

I eventually give in.

Exhausted I sleep.

Dark dreamless sleep

My pounding heart begins to rest

I and my heart, we sleep

Comforted in each other's company.

"Tring tring", my heart wakes up in fear

"Tring tring", my phone rings
"Tring tring", a voice I can no longer bear.
"Tring tring", my heart at me stares.

Twins Nervousness and Exhaustion run away

My heart calls them back. 

But they run.

I'm speechless.

And soon in the cool, dark cave

Light streams- voices glowing sperms!

And the cave glistens

A heated array of electric lights.

"Tring tring", one one-eyed voice smiles

"Tring tring", one excited voice hovers

"Tring tring", a non-chalant voice waves

"Tring tring", a bossy voice observes.

And so I realize

The voices were with me all along

Could never run from them.

Phone in hand,

I long to be 

A carefree spirit again.
