A train to come
Not driven by a living thing
No free will will I wait for

My masterpiece is running in place
Charting distances I run
Lifting blocks but building nothing
Touching each one and walking off screen

This isn't moving
Break my legs
With the strength of a thousand, won't you
Take a once very capable brain
And make it quiet, make it sane
And never able to work the same again
