Screaming Bats

Bats are screaming from trees outside
At least they can scream
My suburban prison
More suffocating as each minute passes
My daily mask still fits
An Iron maiden with ever growing talons
28days a year to be myself, it’s not enough
Trapped in cyclic nightmares
It’s Groundhog Day without the Hollywood ending
Powdered escapes are so temporary
As to become meaningless
My sanity suffers over analysis
Every tunnel needs some light
Electricity not connected
Miracle Needed
Apply Within
