i'm a puppet

i'm a monkey

i'm a mask of denial

i am smoke

within a fog

in the ether

gyroscopic

orbital

sinking & swaying

ebb tide

fullest moon

newest moon

loose strings

and the ground is spinning

and the sky is spinning

and my brain is spinning

inside of my skull

fluid & buoyant

a spacewalk

i'm tethered

but not bound

grabbing another branch

that snaps

touchless & speechless

pull the cowl over and down

noisy & noisesome

the echo of my breath

in the helmet

no anchor & no direction

listing & drifting

on ink, currents, vortices

diamond ice hard shell

molten core

melting through

melting down

strings break

mask shatters

denial dissolves

in the fog

smoke across the ice

i'm a poppet

i'm a sacrifice

i'm the face of trial

a dust devil

in a cloud

in a whirlwind

i

where

i
