#NaPoWriMo2023 : DAY 6
Finding presence through senses
I know
how to protect myself
from so much
but not you.
Not at all!
People say it’s dream,
scientists quote it as “REM” cycle,
but my heart says
it's all the flashbacks
that keeps going
on and on.
I am trapped here
catching a glimpse of past,
arranging flowers and thorns
on the shelves.
I am pinned down
in a closet of nerve cells
every night,
to wake up again
as rubbed-out fresh start
every day!
A mare’s nest,
a cuckoo’s voice,
a random encounter in Midwest,
or a ritual with no choice,
I know
how to defend myself
from all the poetic riots
but not you.
Not at all!
