THE SOLITUDE OF SANITY

The island
Is not permanently inhabited
High tides engulf it
The flowers cannot grow.

The neighbours are strangers
I barely want to know
Cellular beacons towering over barbed garden walls
The black grass is stunted.

The mind is cluttered
No time to stop and think
No will, only desire
No one wants to go.

I stopped believing in fairytales
Often I feel so alone.
