Rib-Cage
I am in this cage
bursting, pissing
and shitting nothing-
my bones erected like
to be read in an anatomy lab
forced to work, forced to live
straightened on deviation
by an unknown force
so powerful, so willful
and keeps me waiting
for I don’t know what
except that I am in this
cage.

i can feel your pain through those words.
the last lines reveal once again your agony which begs us -the readers- to empathise and sympathise with you.
great poem

I wanted to put this one in the anger poem category but then I thought it frustrating and finally chose this one. This is my raw feeling nowadays. Thank you Ophie for commenting on this read.
