Existential ditty of rhyming simplicity
Dividing line defies defined
Not who but where was I
Was I in eyebrows expressing midst reflexive twitching
Was I behind closed eyes, squeezing hand on polite command
Was it fully I present for first memory…if just for a moment, discontinuously
I strongly desire a marker, to wrap my mind around, to structure
But in truth so long I was in between…my existence flatly in doubt
Dead certain entering the void…no way to say when I came back out
