Sideways To The Mirror

Invisible is how I want to seem,

Never actually seeing myself,

No more than a fragile light beam

Disintegrating dust on the shelf.

                                                               

Totality of existence counted in pixels

The fewer, the more I feel satisfied.

Frame by fear-filled frame,

Moving backwards to feel more gratified.

                                                                

Standing in the midst of your presence

Exhaling to the depths of residual air,

That stubbornly stick to my dessicated airsacs

Crying out for moisture.

                                                                    

Would the vaccum of space wither me more?

Shrink-wrap and fold me into a space warp?

Structural integrity as denatured particles

Searching for meaning.

                                                          

Turning around in a pirouette

Standing on one leg,

Plying my craft as a ballerina

'I am wide as a keg'

                                           

Oh dear.
