Just light interrupted,
drawing uncrossable borders,
leaving only the essence of me,
punch-drunk and absent definition.

I seek a shape uncorrupted,
shielded from decay by order,
but find no truth I could be,
just light interrupted.

Pursuing new ambitions,
I detail the things I am not,
navigating myself through empty space
drawing uncrossable borders.

Decisions brittle with structure,
see the world pruned,
until most of it has fallen away,
leaving only the essence of me.

Now tasting this form,
unexpected variables emerge;
I am this fleeting sweetness, still
punch-drunk and absent definition.
