My own medicine


Years of idle inactivity to spite the dream-pushing slave driver
Trapped in super awareness, craving for others
To join it in some selfish sameness
While the range rolls on in a continuum of
With or without me
Fresh bits per second of seeing into and through
The Framework
Of belief in Self and pretty doings committed
Alone in all this space

Memories stored in others while
My body destroys and recreates itself
Changing what goes into the blood
For a stronger future.  There is
Basking and relaxing and sunshine enough for everyone.
No maths or war drums and
No waiting, though
Discomfort in longing, still.

A rush apart – strange smoke
And pain in new places:
The moments serve to separate total being,
Chaotic punctuation
And I’m left to ask myself some scary,
Scary questions

I take walks outside to look at the ocean
To empty me out:
So many hooks I am hung upon
And my alien reflection looks up,
Talks through the polished floorboards
While the waves silently scream
Chill out!  You’re learning how to breathe
