a short poem

are there enough songs in this life
to occupy my mind
to guide me through a tangle of resonant images
snapping back to childhood, and forward to the abyss

{color saturation frying my eyes
shading my shoulders with doubt
the spring in my step grinds like salt beneath my heel}

i need to forgive myself, but what if i do it too soon?
