Becoming Not Being - Grade

How the rapier speaks to flesh

Is not unlike the serpents' tongue

Enlightenment of understanding

Through confrontation

I’m not using

My perspective as an excuse

I’m not using

My perspective as an excuse

Adversaries as gravity

And momentum step through apologies

For the right time to kill

For the right time to kill

And if concrete holds me below

I will marvel at the sun until I stop breathing

Decay and return as apparitions

I will move amongst you

As hopes and as dreams

Place the pillow

Over

Over your face

As hopes and dreams

Place the pillow

Over your face

I’m not using

My perspective as an excuse

I’m not using

My perspective as an excuse
