still write about the overgrown
                                                                            lawn
when the world is on fire




still write about the god of        
                                                                            the sun
when there is pain




try not to condemn
                                                                            chaos
                                                                            but
                                                submit
to no reason at all




thank chaos and still
                                                                            write
to no destination


and all today’s challenge was

                                                                             be the person
                                                you think
                  to exist as
you



but you are here
                                                                            the table

no person at all

no movement                                                       left                
                                                                                                            resolved
