Not Asking

The entire basis of my being is based

On not asking for human interaction

And thus requests for assistance are deterred

Therefore such activities requiring others

Such as dancing, riding a motorcycle, carnivals

Fishing, pet ownership, hunting, traveling, chewing gum, flirting

Bar hopping are avoided

Careers requiring the formation of inquiries

Of the general populace or a pool of coworkers

Such as sales, extended phone use, outings

Lines in wait, unknowns outside a book are taboo

A medical issue is relegated to hoping in one’s immune system

As long as possible to prolong the time of even

Having the concept of a regular physician

Such as beginning some kind of conversation

Death is always on the wings and viewed with a hint

Of seeing the positives, friend and foe

Addiction in all forms is dangerously exiled from possibility

As this would involve going to a provider and communicating

Cigarettes, marijuana, cocaine all too much conversation

Alcohol is a bit less informal like a produce stand

The whole is bent to contrive a lack of need

One does not inquire because one could be nothingness

Being oblivion all better just a thought instead

If it can be purchased online and delivered in silence to the doorstep

Please elect so that an entire life could be had in a shadow

If I can cook it alone at home I will

These numb practicums bear the bead that the sparkling cogs

Are each optional compared to the emotions of the heart

For if a life filled with speaking the variable absent shines the sun

That there never was a star just a man looking into the sky

Seeing the light rays of a black hole that has already occurred

As if he knew the whole time
