Two Souls in Limbo
Written: May 12, 2025, for contest by Brian Strand
*************************
layers of my identity are—
deceptive
caught in
our
cobweb
shadows of
who i once was
hang
in
uncertainty~
stripping
my
essence
from palms of your hands~
suspended
in limbo
two
of us
who are we
If not a creature of our m a k i n g
sanity
deity
martyr turned sacrifice—
what am I now
other than
a
lingering g h o s t
