These days
it’s getting harder
as if
it wasn’t already
nearly
impossible to tell
real life
from a dream or
a long
forgotten past so
vivid
it still tastes raw
like layers
of an onion coming
apart
until you don’t know what
is still
good enough to eat
but with
just barely the tiniest bit of
pruning
so much in fact the scars
still show
anything you have to offer is
enough
is good is here is home
