l u d e d

you are a romantic griever

nothing but a sleeve

you are (truth to tell) just as me

and my need for me is temporary

agents assigned the both of us

blazing careless emitters

and blooded self deceiving receivers

learn to burn better

but become weary aging

suited loosely but saging

with query and feed till the last

 

this could be about freeing oneself

through cathartic reinvention

(just don't mention the balance)

we who never were

must still be policed

and the plastics are getting thinner

and reality is more challenged

than it ever was before
