True North
Feigning reentry
from places I’ve wandered
Destiny challenged
the status-quo damns
Feigning reentry
from freedom unhindered
Life but a journey
its trappings to ban
Feigning reentry
its price was my freedom
The given agenda
new death to the dream
Feigning reentry
refusal my mantra
Staying in transit
—new rivers unstreamed
(The New Room: March, 2023)
