Bring me about
identity
Bring me about
Spin me around
Turned on my heels
Until the truth is faced
Square on
If I can see it
And know what it means
If it is not absolute
Shadows may obscure
Its nature
Even an acceptance
Of what it may not be
Is a way of avoiding
Ambient possibility
You are not here
There is little hope
Life is not what I make it
As that presupposes
I am fit for purpose
Not a series of accidents
By design
Though the blueprint
Is nowhere to be found
Gathering dust
In a cellar somewhere
Awaiting an objection
It is too late
Inevitability
Is always going to happen
Which is one truth
I have yet to disprove.
