Contravention

Invisible, here, not here

don’t speak here, say nothing there

Your knowledge is immaterial

and yet…some listen anyway.

Why? What difference doe it all make

anyway?

Who cares if what is known has truth?

what does it matter if  my spirit bleeds from keeping silent?

The guides say speak, others say teach

man says shut the fuck up..

What to do? Where to go?

How do I explain that I can’t…others aren’t willing…

Am I losing what I have?  Did I ever have anything?

Things seem to be shadowed by fear…

Who’s fear?  Mine? Others?  Are they one and the same?

My tears fall in frustration…I cry out to the guides

but they are silent….I’m out here alone I rail…

Silence………….
