“There are all these voices in your head, all these feelings for people who are no longer a part of your immediate present, all these places you used to live. They keep coming back and doing battle with the adamant present.”
–Lewis Warsh
In perpetuity,
The adamant present
Insists on being
Recognized:
Who are you?
To Whom do
You speak?
I stand
In the difference
Between heart
And mind,
Opening and closing
Like an eye
Blinded by the sun.
