The Catch

Amid these knots

Maybe when these wants have burned away,
and I have renounced all that I––or anyone
––ever thought to know, I will be enfolded
by the net I learned to struggle against
in the name of saving my life
and maybe then I will learn how,
despite consensus to the contrary,
the net is all.

I keep watch and listen, mostly in dark places.
