STRAINER.

John Rohner

I got a strainer,
so I can filter 
out the world.
I set in on 'fine'
so I won't be disturbed
in my souless struggle
to be free
I don't let nothing in,
so nothing gets to me.
every now and then
I have to clean it
then I am forced 
to see all the shit
that's out there
ready to kill me.
but some folks call this
Reality.
