yes_no_clarity
kingsuperspecial Suddenly, in thin light, hope breaks
Tiny cuts push open, releasing
and the idea of "yes" becomes fragmented
stammering
lost

the pressure was imperceptible
demands for fact
an assessment, character pressed for voids
spinning and flight nailed down for examination

what is your answer?

growing a slow like has it's place
but not here, or tonight
the enemy easily steps among the sleeping
cutting thoughts, roots, throats
fragile thread strained to invisible, gone

maybe hides NO!
wait becomes NO!
trying reveals NO!

clarity comes uninvited, knife drawn
hope lying cold and empty,
while potential reels, wounded and bleeding,
then slowly regains it's feet
and staggers away,
blind among the dead
