A man once alive Found the tide to be consuming It was an exit, it was an entrance No longer staggered; only sure A lake of reason, not so blue Holding something within Manumission, entropy and gain “What is this? This is new…” A feeling regained Dismissing this demon The relieving of self At the bottom of a lake Quintessence departed from man Luminous; as dreaming Screaming in the violent current This damage decrescent Innards of ethereal composition Crux both in shape and voice Taken by moment Saturated by choice Should it stay, or need it go? Haunting in this water The pod of what he was A spectre That which could have been A man once alive And was once damaged Rests at the bottom of the world Held himself within him It is reborn and broken out And to himself he thought before death: “This is something better, not ever something less…” |
