Words to cease

Words of Power

words of destruction

that cancel each other

by churning context to chaos


and without each other

their meaning fell

like myths devastated

by an iconoclasm


that was as called for

as a heavy rain

after a drought



for if you dreamed up

a dead-end


it is better to let it disperse

than walk into it.


By control you can

only ever control yourself

by amputating limbs as other.
