. . . if you have ever been born

. . . if you have ever been born,

there was a madness made within you

 

.forever.

 

not a madness of cruelty or despair

(for it gobbles these up)

but a madness rich with silver linings

and ships

surely              

          coming          

                            in.

and when (youandi) draw our    

last.dying.breath.

It will be the final fragment to leave us.

it is

it is insanity

it is irrational bug-befuddled lunacy

It is a Madness.

 

It is called hope.
