sunken spirit
I nearly found truth sedimented
at the bottom of a bottle of wine,
or at least something closely related
it has certainly felt really fine.
and I honestly wanted to say -
but my tongue would refuse to untie
(while my lips were already all numb),
paralyzed in this fear of a lie,
words collapse, any sound is too dumb
- i am watching the dust fleet away.
