Fear the Senses by Luis Cuauhtémoc Berriozábal

I fear the senses
coming and going.
I mine for feelings
hidden in my heart.
I know my thoughts have
stalled. My organs have
shut down. I rely

on my eyes to see.
My health is all I
had. How I suffer
in my soul? I mine
my heart for strength. I
just have one. I don’t
know why I’ve gone mad.
