Numb

Everything and everyone try to numb you

A numb being is easy to control, as

A numb being isolates itself

A numb being merely consumes 

A numb being resigns before starting

A numb being just floats 

To resist becoming numb is valor

For one risks destroying one’s illusions

When acting with courage

Paradoxically actively embracing numbness 

Is also a sign of courage, for

Being numb strengthens you against the

Vicissitudes of existence
