Y O Y

how does a numb heart keep with the beat?
in whole or in part
collective unconscious produce meaningful art?
the canvas is white again,
paint no longer pumping
through its network of tributaries;
cut and splayed by the virginal acumen
of a jaded parvenu,
stupid stupid,
why the fuck should I please anyone,
"we're all mundane"
what keeps us sane?
the answer, no; the question?
thought is devalued and has no place
human is dehumanized and has no voice
sponge rapt in free verse,
the tired ruminations on rumination,
skipping the beat, muting the noise
effortfully futilely, noise
noise, noise,
a louder silence,
a deader calm
