Picking a Direction
To declare, you make sure to be received
At the moment your mean streak ripens to delirium
As if the silence had been a preemptive rebuttal.
To lie down, you try but the puzzle never happens
Each iteration of yourself hyperextends
There’s no one to join.
Because to recover, you send your numerousness
Out into the cold to greet the moment
That demands your oneness address its debt.
And that’s perpetuity:
To view a place while zoomed in from far away
Creates a stifling compression.
