Wet/Forget
Steep steps
for a labored exit
Fear the edges when the face is hot
A half-formed copy, which
shames me
Though it forms me,
I tuck it into the pages
Still, I glimpsed this version,
a mildewed acknowledgement
Light seemed interested in gaps
there
Something normal degraded
Care/Rare
An example of me - overwhelmed
a notable, confused panic
Magnified beyond meaning,
the limits lost.
What system allows it?
What ecosystem supports it?
An example of absurd aggravation
inflamed by a bold spider
I could’ve killed it, yet
The subsequent view of
derangement subdues me
Told/Fold
A hint is picked up,
denied,
rediscovered. I don’t
submit to the second voice -
the evil echo.
I shift up, I’m the boss
I grow, I incorporate
I celebrate the complexities that
allow me to accumulate.
In silence, the point subverted:
We’re exceptional because
we own the fabrication -
Denied, and
filling up the empty space with
premonition
