Naming It

Swirling the darkness like a smoothie 

Hovering just out of reach

Pricking your attention-what’s it doing

Filling you with a vague sense of fear 

 

You grasp for it with both hands

As it starts to materialize 

Should you run fuck it or eat

This can’t be decided

 

Until you can name it 

Understand its taxonomy

You can’t frame it 

Can’t round it completely 

 

When you say it 

The power returns to feel

You can see things

Clearly again 

 

You’ve lived long enough 

To have explored some things

Been fortunate enough 

To have survived some things 

 

It’s endless what 

This curiosity brings

As you take that rental car 

Out for another spin
