With or Without consent.

There are moments when i sink deep

into a silence

so deep I hear myself thinking

I see and visualize

what I feel and the real is here

the depth is almost a

recuperation of the madness

of daily living –

of a pause

necessary for a restart

in this overly planned

computerized

time space

borrowed

on loan.

while I live

my mind afloat

groomed in totality.

Brain wired

without connection

interconnected invisibility

in sync

with the greater outer controls

we have been occupied

with and without consent

existing for years

we have already given up

many moons ago.
