the loneliness of definiteness,
as sensory so leads me,
as if I ever wished to dress in certitude.
give me a mirror
that reflects fog or sky,
but not life-viewed
as a stare-down.
conclusions are a labor
on attention spans.
I wish to spy on uncertainty,
to be clothed
in someone else's second-hand ambivalence
and not be the wiser,
have vagaries
for sunset impression left behind,
be in a conversation
and realize I am of it,
be passionately definite about uncertainty,
know the truth to be un-addressable,
wander in on meaningful
in a dressing room of its composure,
say what you said,
but only in my head hearing it.
realize, as if spontaneously so,
that every next moment is questionable,
that people all around,
chasing love,
are only a defining shadow
away from discernment.
I can't help but feel
and language doesn't articulate that.
vaguery is my hearty soup of the day.
wandering is as clear
as intentionality can get.
it seems I am standing in a line, alone,
not really knowing
what I am about to get,
in which I am then gifted
with a puzzling matter.
so how to frame the inevitable,
in complete surprise?
to find, in the loneliness of definiteness,
where sensory so leads me,
that certitude is a mind-grab,
where I only wanted feel,
as check to check . . .
