Killing us with a cotton death
Instead of an axe
Slow painless breath
Medication
They ask
No I haven't taken it
Do I plan on going home?
The rantings are deemed insane
But you utter the same
As the dark solace of your cotton pillow
Lulls your troubles to sleep.

Author's Note
I don't know if anyone recalls the Iranian YouTuber that went "insane". I have mixed feelings, as she is portrayed so negatively, and rightfully so my God. But her rantings sound much like a person stuck on the facts of our dystopian reality, unable to wade through it any longer in a relatable way. I don't know.
