music
is the closest
thing to god
for it goes up
in nonsense of notes
that make you feel
something still
among the cacophony
and your own breath
that silences
if only to hear better
*
everyone wants to be happy
and so few want to be downtrodden
spit on
left to be alone
and despised
for it is forgotten
that there in vile
and repulsion
is paradise
where others aren’t
and can’t be
and don’t need happiness
for they have found
themselves instead
