What It's Not About


eyelash suspended on a computer screen
still on the couch, unable to fit my mind around
everything still on the list
and the list, the list paralyzes -
not benign
nearing volatile -
this is not about me
but the intersection of life
just got plugged with the traffic
of confusion and despair
Traffic Director, I need you.
listening again and again
to a singer and his song
trying to negate the lies
with a taser of truth

Listening to Tenth Avenue North - You Are More


::this is not about what you've done - but what's been done for you,
this is not about where you've been - but where your brokenness brings you to,
this is not about what you feel, but what he felt to forgive you,
what he felt to make you loved::
