Box

I opened a box

unleashing horrors and demons

and I can’t find the lock

as angels’ wounds deepen

the dead walk amongst us

gliding through a slaughtered school bus

I’ve been hailed by madness

for unleashing this cursed fluorescence

And though I’m frozen in a shock

Today I found just the lock

to close the box for good

but that fluorescence got a hold on me

and suddenly I feel mad and free
