I turn
from the spectacle
I know I am empty--
know I am finished--
a long-celebrated theme
finally closed
after seriously many
previous attempts--
full rendering pure and true
to a fugitive notion
in my stream of consciousness--
I turn tail--mutter "enough!"--
it is a map for our very world
of dislocations and emanations
unsolvable world
in its choicest presentation--
a swirling blue
splotch of common chaos--
daily tossing up against
the eye insistent as dust
I'd gladly leave this bullshit behind--
but how? but when?
or even if!
the played out effort will halt
abrupt as a nuclear flash
and then
the consciousness
that knows it knows
will be
happy to forego
any daily therapy
of disappointment--
to abandon puzzling over the
unsolvable world...
