What frame of mind
what way of being
allowed doubt to slip in?
stealth
uninvited
It sits besides my intent
bully slaps it around
How did I let you in?
From where did you come?
I thought I faced you
and released you
so many times before
Yet there you are
at the wheel
driving me to where
I don’t want to go
and yet I go
to disproportionate views of darkness
and shadow
I grab the wheel
and steer
to another destination
But I still feel you there
LEAVE ME!
GO!
BE GONE!
I am my master
