everything

this wearying burden

is weightless,

buoyant

yet immobilizing;

clamping firmly on essence

and strangling intuition.

uninhibited,

cloying, vast—

i am everywhere

null and void.

it flows without lingering

but leaves behind an impression

of needing

and of need;

of thinking…

of knowing…

of feeling

the feeling

of everything

at once.
