on becoming reborn
yes it’s true I was lost
for the better part of my life
chasing the impossible
self-harming
neglecting & dismissing
deep inside the mosh pit
the dark cavern
the constant turmoil
with thousands of other
lost souls
the bell is ringing
its origin dating back
a half century
but I’m unable to locate
the source
its home
a place that once was
and ceases to be
all this time I thought I was
advancing forward
but truth be told
I’ve been regressing
in search of discovering
that who I truly am
january two thousand twenty-two
