The Vanishing

To be as an unseen sentence in an unread novel,

one must study the art of the unfound fossil.

By burying yourself beneath sediment and grime,

your character arc will dissolve into the pages of time.

Allow chaos to shroud your aura in several abnormalities,

blending your dark energy into the invisibility of normality.

Eyes of the living that fall upon your physical position

will see only the misting curls of a windy apparition.

Let go of tomorrow’s hypothetically healthy heartbeat

and focus on the rhythmic pulse of today’s memories.

Do this correctly and the literature coding your DNA will

allow you to disappear for hundreds of thousands of centuries.
