Creatively speaking
I’m suffering
from brain freezes and Jenga moves
take the blocks from the bottom
to rebuild the top
only to find out later
that I’m weakening
the foundation
My siamese twin, Instability
will not lead me to the promised land
and neither will
my conscience, Inconsistency
What is progress
but hair length and growth spurts
but hair loss and hunching over
but lying down
What is darkness
but beginning the end
and ending the beginning
If you suffer from fear of heights
do you cure it if you jump
or
can midway through falling
you suspend the outcome
rebound against
gravity
and force yourself up
His heart rate’s been
flatlining
so
despite his good health
the doctors have ordered:
electrical shock
defibrillator downers
