Already seen
deja vu on the words
confronted with an infinity
of desires and lifestyle choices
curious that i’ve read these words
on this computer screen while sitting on
this couch at this 9:30pm on this Wednesday
night in some parallel state
there’s comfort in deja vu
the I-can-sleep-in-more kind of comfort
but also a slight lung crushing
bone rubbering
slicing of time
that renders me
big and small
light and dark
human and alien
daringly alive
extra in the now
there’s always more
infinities of desires, one could say
unchosen but chosen
all the same flapping
behind the rose-patterned
sheet on the clothesline of each day

This is great
You’re on a roll
A poetry roll
