Author’s Note:
This piece explores agency, ownership, and the institutional control of human life. It does not advocate self-harm. Readers are encouraged to engage with the full work before drawing conclusions.

Sometimes the single most impactful thing a person can do with their life is take it.

Have you taken yours or does it still belong to something or someone else?

And did they form an institution… for safekeeping? lock it away in a vault? Or is it safe?

There is a difference…you know?

One values an object and the other values the space

You know it’s not a crime to take it,

but I may have broke the law to say it.

made myself accomplice

to let you de-conflate it

living and surviving are not the same shit

Just because it’s yours don’t mean you ain’t gotta take it.

I’d die for what I love. Does that policy cover your life?

It’s legal to take it… but illegal to break in, guard arms signal

You won’t get space without a fight

Not safe… so must be vault

Told you… you can take it!

It’s not your life, it’s the space that they value.

The vault protects the space, so your connection cannot travel

If your life was taken… and allowed to

reconnect then you’d know how to

Experience Relativity.
