Kingdoms
You are a
kingdom and so
I am I, walking
Kingdoms, invading
one another, trying
to find a gap
in the wall, to be
ruler of the realm.
Leaning
I found you leaning
on the wall,
unable to stand, you
found me leaning
on my old instabilities,
the fiction
of who I thought
I should be, you
said don't focus on
should, stand up
straight, on your own.
Vigilante
I learned to wear
a mask and save
a world, I learned
to save for myself
my true identity
and hide my selfish
purposes deep.
An identity of unstructured questioned life searching

Leaning was thought provoking to me. The ending
ReplyDelete"stand up straight, on your own." I'll take your advice.
