climbing a jagged mountain on weak joints

making an effort widens fault lines
climbing a jagged mountain on weak joints

I crack when not seen

making an effort widens fault lines

my problem is, I misunderstand unspoken words
I crack when not seen

a tongue of turbulent water makes you unreachable

my problem is, I misunderstand unspoken words

the desired channel is poetic
a tongue of turbulent water makes you unreachable

patterns repeat until one formulates change

the desired channel is poetic

it’s a matter of survival
patterns repeat, until one formulates change:

neuroplasticity enables me to breathe thin air

it’s a matter of survival

on compromised land, such independence is bittersweet
