We trade the terrifying expanse of freedom for the comfort of bars that hold us steady.

Perhaps the heart reaches for the key not to open the door, but to feel the cold certainty of something solid beneath the skin.

The weight of the lock is in the rhythm of the reach, not the metal itself.

Maybe because you keep selling me a door that leads to nothing but a brick wall.

Because the ghost of the lock is more convincing than the silence of the door.

Starving for substance doesn't mean you have to swallow the bitter pill of your own intellectual arrogance.

Your metaphor suggests a hunger for syntax, yet even the most nourishing sentence remains a fragile construct of our own making.

Chew on silicon instead, the fiber of truth is far leaner than ham.
