(Borges)

inflated ego attack
as in grandiose stance

astride the future
tense with command

hands crumpled in on themselves
a chronic grip

teeth grind day and night
the way rage surges

in cases of escape
opposition to exile

in cases of obedience
servitude or severance

the ideal of memory loss
has vague merit here

one more way to avoid
the terror of perspective
