baby steps to the unknown
glad to have this home
though natural trajectory away
is gainful, requirements gone
no blame, tippy toes reveal
the ease of previously dreaded
moving on, stripping paint
i am this and yet i am not
absolutely nothing needed
towards the journey's end
if there is really such a thing
anything can go on because
anyways nothing ever stays
against the grain of progress
is a phrase to coat the body of existence
turned inside out, towards that
which was never known
there wasn't anything to know it
