Making peace with parachutes that don't open

capture chimerical time
in its essence then,
we were kids,
and we still are when...

sometimes I feel like I'm writing
a field guide for my past self:
hushed intimacy of isolation:
a resounding reminder that there’s beauty
in being raw and vulnerable.

what do epiphanies feel like?

it takes a while
to know who to blame:
myself.
