twisting in my skin
I cannot feel this
a void centred on me
I am its founder
I created you and
came from within you and
today I welcome you
like a father
uncoiling histories
before and behind
disfiguring to
uncover the cause
beneath the weight of
forgotten futures
too few by far
to meet the glow
of possible pasts
been in here for
far too long and
I am tired from
all of the waiting
safe in my flesh disguise I
tried not to make any sound
almost believing that I could see it
a little closer
closer
beyond the edges of me
just past the next lamplight
still just out of reach
but moving nearer
larger than
older skin
turning inside
itself out
cover me in blackness
I can sleep at last
what will I be
as I wake
into sunlight
crawling from its shell
from the further reaches
crawling from the wreckage
stumbling across the grave
forsaking older skin
confronting the day
