Dead Letters

Self, reflected
His problems are mine
Monsters in my head

Gut feelings
Gut feelings
is that all they are?
Monsters in my head

dead letters
dead letters
letters on the dead hair
of dead women
in the dead letters department
dead letters

Filed, stamped, numbered
I have a name
Monsters in my head

personal personal
fear hatred rage anguish
must destroy
Monsters in my head

No longer pretty puzzles
I cannot bear
Monsters in my head.
How?
How do you cope, Frank?
