A False Sense

The world within the
Grasp of one's fingertips
Slipping and slipping
Ever so slowly

Once expressive
Osmotic thought
Fading and now
Ever so vapid

The river rapids, crashing, running so free....

..Yet
uncontrollably floating
downstream like
broken debris


The sky succumbing
To darkness
Fear settling in
Completely freezing over

Like concrete roots to one's feet....

..suddenly immobile.

The dreams
The answers
The messages lost
The world slips and
What's left is the cost

Bound to its axis
The d e f e a t s
Taken as taxes

And finally realisation....

..It was never mine to begin with
