recluse

one of those days
mind unravelling
taste of prison bars on tongue
the inner prison
the life sentence
rust, gold, metal, whatever, wherever
who, where, how, why, when, what
left, stayed, got stuck
stuck in a field without a horizon
an abandoned planet
made ours
traces of stars and sunsets
in the rocks
that used to be flowers
planted seeds
turned into skyscrapers
skyscrapers turned into stardust
this life
this mind
a recluse of time
a recluse of reality
a recluse of sanity
take one
action
and so it goes
on and on
and on
i try to keep up
with you
with me
with the world
with love
try to hang on
knowing how easily
this can all come undone
