Headed northbound I-35 out of Dallas,
sinking; tied to stones.
Whether or not the deed was done with malice
cannot change the fact that I have lost my home.
You were smiling an ugly smirk by the oak doors,
your arms interlocked smugly across your chest.
You dragged me past the rooms with the tiled floors
and strapped me into a lead-lined vest.
And I screamed like a village on fire,
thrashed against the chains, gnawed at all the wires.
I let myself be carried to a dark and empty room.
I let myself be sealed within the tomb.
And I roared like a wounded, cornered beast,
and longed to escape to the southeast.
