No Desire
This poem was inspired by the Rammstein song "Keine Lust," though the lyrics are in German. The actual English translation of it is similar to the poem. You can find the German lyrics and the English translation here.


I've no desire
No desire
No desire
No desire

I don't feel like not hating another
Don't feel like touching my lover
I would feel like taking a hit
Don't feel like trying it
I would feel like taking off my clothes
Don't want to see myself exposed

I would feel like not being quitter yet
Don't feel like considering it
Don't feel like looking for gold
Don't feel like leaving the cold

No desire
No desire
No desire
I've never had desire

I don't feel like chewing anything
Because I don't feel like digesting anything
Don't feel like stepping on a scale
Don't feel like not walking as a snail

I'll just keep lying on the floor
And as I count the flies some more
I listlessly touch myself
And noticed that I've been cold for a long time
So frigid, I'm cold

No desire
