What terrible thickness Encrusts my worth to exist? Accept my body-self as Lover Actor Persistent hero conquering to some degree obstacles within More so those more horrendous ones, around me My fire burns regardless of how it got ignited Despite whatever unexpected event Marred the first place I multiplied, divided Subtracted some, then, added, whatever Those creamy waters sloshed my way A cellular mystery intention sparked to live Despite that gnawing riddle that claws No matter how far I dig Let go to release forgiveness Heal un-recallable grief I only return to that empty strange Exile, alone The one happiness kisses then abandons Closeness hugs then walks away The high that bursts ecstasy then Simmers me a solitary cinder midst darkness The liquid light I take as my name Push up that incline steep despite The ever rolling back in ways I cannot tell if It’s nearer or further from credulity The place I dream it would rest Insanity claims me as her child, yet I seek absurd camaraderie To better walk the steps that creak The remainder of my days © Jeff Cannon, 01/24/2015, 2:55 am on patio
