***
|
||
|
|
||
|
crisp window squeaking over, unbarrier from air
|
||
|
letting in the cries of crickets, early morning fair
|
||
|
a strange sense of healing, repressed feelings from three years hence
|
||
|
baby torn from mother's womb, strange perdition ever since
|
||
|
|
||
|
why would anyone fetishize the loss of identity
|
||
|
that comes from being absorbed into the Trinity?
|
||
|
for I stare into neverending auburn and gray skies
|
||
|
and wonder how, in Nature's face, anyone could fall for God's lies
|
||
|
|
||
|
almost a year ago, undone from the myth
|
||
|
of needing a collective to dissolve oneself with
|
||
|
for what is the use of becoming free
|
||
|
if I forfeit myself, subsumed by the we?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Call me a coward, but I declare myself unfettered,
|
||
|
a tactical retreat to make myself even better.
