chester maynes

cruel fragments of chronicles-
flashing randomly, hurting me.

pausing…
i realized this evoking.

too intense,
these silly & pathetic strikes.
i won’t be dragged.

regressing-

impatience skews inspiration,
anxiety batters,
i’m brawling & wrestling.

rescue me, rescue me,
i can’t die today!

i’m moving, waving, flapping,
disregarding the sirens inside my mind,
returning from a daze.

at last-

i am home again, winning.
