Immortal we

feeling immortality

amidst reverie

then dead

to the world

revived

by a new rush

of thoughts

yet no memory

of gainful reward

but dutiful self-surveillance

in response

amid convictions

too worn

as immortality’s burden

dressed down

naked

staring back

at stimulation’s monotony

repetition

as back slapping awareness

that has no content

yet symbolic

but shapeless

and impending

as an acute respect

for it’s imposing presence

invisible friends

that you’d never meet

like words

though rich inside

and hollowed

into finished sentences

yet that thin breath

leading

to swallowed whispers

mentored

by self delusion’s

accompaniment

conclusions

as fault lines under foot

crawling becomes

the noise of broken parts

that toll

loud enough

as if nothing else is said

a privacy practice

in resolution’s finale

are we immortals

as souls

who pose in passing

on the runway

to oblivion’s daybreak?
