not
that i can believe stupid things
but
so poetry can find a ground in me
free
me from facts
not
that i can misrepresent abuse
but
so those fictions that guide life can be seen
free
me from humans
not
that i can live wholly apart
but
so i can hear the stories of trees and clouds
free
me from technology
not
that i can ignore currency
but
so i can remember nakedness
free
me from time
not
that i can escape death
but
so i can feel creation
