four am
my mind a minefield
every thoughtflicker setting off
shockwaves of guilt over
everything and nothing
what i''ve done
what i failed to do
what i did and undid
the barrenness of what is left
to choose
wrong moves on a chessboard
whose only constancy is inconstancy
i couldn't breathe
the futility of remorse piled on guilt
stones on the chest of a witch
being pressed
so i ran
a fugitive in first light
to the waterfall
to lose myself
in the thunder of the ungovernable
and drown the choir of blame
standing on the ledge
being baptized
in the holy water of nature
pushed me into another hell
thoughts of sex and death
chased each other's tails
describing a perfect circle
of surrender to that which is greater
than the self
i have none of the one
only the certainty of the other
my consolation
the certainty will be the end
of nights like this

A view of a golden summer dawn at one of the Minneopa Creek waterfalls near Mankato, Minnesota. The word Minneopa comes from the Dakota language and is interpreted to mean "water falling twice."
