No Satisfaction...

(With thanks to Keith Richards and Sir Michael Jagger)

I can’t anymore:

Can’t think

Can’t cope

Can’t act

Can’t hope

Can’t fantasise

I wish I could lose the ability to dream:

Can’t rest

Can’t heal

Almost awake

Unceasingly just feel

Always on the edge of achievement

I want to stop waiting:

Waiting for calm

Waiting for ease

Waiting for order

Waiting for peace

Waiting to actually live and not subsist
