Insensibility

INSENSIBLY you slide towards the madness of dreams.
But your thoughts will never change.
They wait in a large room beyond the door,
They wait to see how it ends.
And yet they never look beyond themselves.

They choose this cage.
Smile like spiders.
Be silent like beggars.
They are locked inside a tomb.
A shallow tomb full of rats.
Its contents were already ravaged.
Deep inside, like a cockroach,
They wait to see who will unlock the door.
