The Statement
our time must be spent
hiding from the statement.
the statement is absurd and nude.
life is not nude.
layers protect who we are.
our layers define us
and must be fashionable.
don’t
think too much.
others have worse problems than you.
stay quiet so they can fake it.
the past, you say?
the past is an unworn locket.
no one can open the locket and not be horrified
by their own neglect.
don’t
try to be better.
are you ready to cry
until the tears cleanse?
tears can scald
as bad as battery acid.
tears are not cures.
truth is not a key.
it won't get through.
