Votive Candles
Folder:
The Rushing Stream of Desires
Votive candles burning.
Say a prayer for self.
Extinguish desire.
Relinquish hope.
Feel nothing.
Be nobody.
Die.
Monday morning requires
dedication to life.
Ignore it.
Let it go away.
Stay submerged
in the chaos of the weekend.
Tuesday to Friday repeats
the same channel.
Motivated to cringe.
Unambitious.
Remorseful only in words.
Let the veils cover the fortress.
Hot sun burning.
Wilting grass.
Open the eyes.
See nothing.
Be nowhere.
Exist but do not live.
Blow out the votive candles.
Let the requiem prayers begin.
