Is my writing unique? Perhaps it''s too obscure or enigmatic. Will anyone read my verse? I doubt anyone but God will witness this. Nowhere will reproduce me for I have burned all my bridges and I entertain the possibility of profound failure. I tried to follow the protocol which provides certain uncertainties and now I grasp at my sense which was our concept which was your idea of absolute truth that remains missing. Oh despair for this enjoyment and then for horror and then for death and then you may rejoice for this fearful strain and joy. The stakes were always too high and the rules keep changing into fixed boundaries that become absent I cannot stay anonymous, rootless, I cannot escape these four static walls while everything''s changing The world demands a concentration of forces and so all the energy I spend I do without return. Burn them when I''m gone. Burn it all. The door was still with a jab of the stick slammed shut and all was completely silent. ~"''s''no-man"... |
