Withdrawal
By KissTheSkyPH
Smug in the knowledgeThat I possess and ownA plane where I can driftSecure that all my thoughts are sownIn safer soil whereThey’ll soon be grownWith no alien incision.Shrinking backFrom an adolescent phaseI can let my conscienceGo on its separate waysDetaching from the puddlesFormed by ever melting days.It’s a subtler decision.Crouched low among the weedsOf my intentionI marvel at thisAstute inventionThat hides the crudenessOf an undesired convention.I dictate my own vision.Now you see me.Now I don’t.Assure me that I’m there.Try to touch meBut you won’t.You’re groping air.March 2001, Written October 27th, 2001 © on Oct 26 2001 06:00 PM PST 18 • 0 • 10
