I am lastly lucid and dread being
/led Pondering “who am I when I’m dead/asleep?”
I savor seabound, silent rooster’s screech Follow family found
during delayed dreams Fighting to fade into flickers of melodic memory
I am the art, act, ache wanting to/lead Pretending my becoming/forgotten self lies
below floating sea I perceive before and after slipping by/past Soiling my soul masquerading as a
garden wreath I worry, when I wake I won’t wait with “me” Wailing simulating silent tears
soaking sealocked tree Glamorizing growth sprouting out of single/seed I am little/lovely
labor grasping life-sized lead Stating syllables nulling sentence’s I conceive, ruby,
amber, seaweed invisible out/bleed I try, I try, I try to echo more than
keep/dream Dreaming, “when did lifestart to need”? I hope/I survive
in this forever fake/fantasy
Weaving/I am
who I am
instead
of me I
before
/lament
and after
/lament,
“Who am
I to
lead/me?”
I/can’t
IMPORTANT NOTE: The forward slashes can be read one word after the other, or you can choose to read a word out of the two. For example: I really like writing/poetry!
