You chase it

pace it 

almost 

caught by it 

 

someone 

nearly bought it 

many already

too done with it 

 

we get there eventually 

maybe dimensionally

inevitably we become 

yet another thing

 

restless 

get dressed 

walk the city 

shaking streets 

 

history 

saying something 

we hear 

yet can’t feel 

 

at rest 

in bed 

stacking things 

instead

 

rearranged 

to make sense 

yet there’s yet

another narrative
