More Commonalities With The Unabomber
I too
Have been gaslit
So severely
So thoroughly
That I felt as if
I needed to scream my beliefs
To the furthest corners of the universe.
I too
Have a message
For the world, that they
Won’t be receptive of.
I too
Am a bit too comfortable
Walking to the beat of my own drum, singing
My own tune.
I too
Would rather live alone in the woods
With my thoughts
With my ambitions
With my plants and inventions.
I too would rather be
An ideology
Rather than a man, with a name
Or a face— I too
Can’t trust anyone
To understand my methods
Or my intentions
I don’t want
To make friends with anyone
I too have been betrayed
By everyone and everything—
I too
Want to speak
My truth—
Even if it kills you
