Dust Is Not Me, the


The dust lies like truth
spread too thin to reveal all
interpretations

it reveals nothing
in a blanketed expanse
but sad finger marks

epithets of gloom
fake messages in plumes lead
horizontally

I am torn between
admiring the gladdened scene
and cleaning it away

the dust is not me
but it does glean things about my
personality
