there is nothing here I can claim

nothing that is mine

nothing I want

nothing


and out of this...what?

the same mess that broke me down?

the same self that acknowledged its error

to no forgiveness?


I am the still the entity I am

but who is that

in this new dispensation

this new obstacle course for the soul?


the veil draws shut and reality fades like a dream

and now what?
