Description
I never asked for you.You are here, digging so precariously,
not wholly unwanted, but painfully deceived.
Elations betray, and the conundrum is: I need you.
Or so I allow my outward self to believe,
despite better judgment. I am like a fool who knows right
and yet still chooses folly continuously. Is this me?
Is the pain of loss an opening for evolution,
or my invitation to serene despondency?

More or less the effect i was going for. This poem, like several others posted recently, is actually a chapter opening for a long-term project i'm working on. I'm glad they're being received so well.

Ah... it's a novel? hmm... that'd be hard to read online...

Thanx. It preceded a rather poignant writer's block.
