Hazy Acres

I can make this simple 

Or say more than needs saying 

Complicated 

Blurry 

Hard to understand 

I can posit a big word here

There

One that stops the flowing winds 

One that lives in doubt 

Landing as it should 

In rhythm 

Along the lines of a forest 

Surround the lips 

An edge to the edge 

Moving

While it hesitates to say anything 

Buried deep in a hole 

Protecting itself

An ego painted on 

Even if its not real 

Sinking in a shallow year 

Clear 

What is apparently a period of time 

Meeting its end 

As if it never was 

Or is 

Could never exist 

Speaking inside a place 

Armed with rituals 

To defend 

What will stay truth 

In and Around 

Me 

Surrounded by the presentations 

To pretend
