MCMLXXVIII

Published 2023-08-27
by hook or by crook
you were the first in my book
…in a long time
and the aftermath-fine
is not your crime
but my wall to climb

and I did it

with all that magical sweat
that belies
the simple of what’s just white
and what’s just black
and my saluting that
is the prize

rather than what I did

or did not get back

the alchemist
and solipsist
cannot co-exist

release your rage
with the expanse of a new page
and when the pangs that clang
like the bells that rang
are safe to be left
with care
there
grant yourself mercy
and don’t feel frightened
to tell an/other
that you are on a soul journey
and they’re no longer invited

when you alone know
the truth in that
everything you did
was underwritten by love
you send yourself
the white peace dove

and,
the sculptor
with works of glitter
that flitter behind every rewind
fuels a heart pumping blood
with a flood
of feels

and signing the wisps of elixir
from all the moxie mixed in there
makes it only fair
that sculptor and white dove declare:

with a kiss made of Light
and done to heal
starts with respecting
those feels
because ~
all of that
was real

and

because of all that

now I understand this:

the alchemist
and solipsist
cannot co-exist
