UNSELFING THE SELF

nothing I imagined

brought peace to me


like finally restraining

that yakking narrator


composing my biography

as I lived it and made me regret doing so...


his chatter is a dull distant white noise

like traffic on an interstate a mile and a half away


or a seashore rustling at the edge of sleep

that wakens me to this blessed silence....
