depth of self has become quite the commodity,
list now all the interests that define you!
escape. implosion. misanthropy. pulse.
i seek a softer hushing of my rage.
i wish, fervently, to be alone
and left to my own drawstring devices.
scarcely tethered to this time,
i’ll snap my beak and break the twine.
anonymity. mobility. poetry.
mine.
