try as you may
you won’t free yourself
this rictus of regret
those vague creases
appear in serrations
of the wrong ideas
awareness shrinks into
futile demonstrations
of pointlessness
demotivational airs
play baroque off-key
muscular memories
diminuendos of
deep repentance
crescendo repeatedly
stasis of the time-trapped
frozen in amaze of
remembrance
