I may have played out
some things
and need to move on
I may have played out
everything
and get to move on
I may have
played out
this vein
of my life
this cliff's crease
and need to leap
there just there
i thought

This **** spills too much
this dam strains
wrong things in

bigger awareness's
and smaller fears
puppet me out

drift against a marker
with knobbly knees
'neath cutoffs

and crayoned
messages meant
sincerely

an arm around
a younger self
this way i say

I must catch
myself
falling
I am falling
must catch

Honest ahm distracted
almost  enough
to be sick

only if
we fail
our venture

fade fade fade
in this sunlight
find my shadow

blow on it
to not
explode

all clambers up
sniffs the wind
scents you

I'll get up trim
and floss

early enough
to work sinew loose

set to righting

I have to set to
righting

right something

right

right right right

something

to breathe

The beach inside
soaked
in counterintelligence
arms draw away
now so hot
i cannot
key in the data
answerings to why
unbidden and wrong
swim forward near enough
i grimmace at the light
flight

It is just this space I need
place

place meant for me

place

sewn from nows
in taxi cabs
searching cross town
for chemistry

place

i've been placed
a piece
annotated
pretent

off the board
suspicious
of your likeness
being you
