What’s omitted?

What’s omitted? What’s unread? What animates this text’s thread?

Insanity insanity Went searching for divinity Encountered inhumanity Profanity and vanity Enhancement of immunity And unity, community I had an opportunity And went for it, unarmed

I’m giving this darkness a voice Possess me Talk Let me see you Let me hear you What is it you want from me Where are you trying to go Rage Rage

Possess me Talk through me Let them know Let it show and then go Why won’t you go? I’m home? Protecting me? There’s nothing there You’re killing me

Reverse the spell Inertia’s the only thing keeping me here

Pain A thorn A hole For light For life For breath Then fire And burning And sweating And shaking Forgetting An act of mercy

A surgery with no anesthesia Reporting live from the extraction’s site

Shedding old skin Keep up your chin

Almost there, soldier Stay with me now Eye of the beholder The sacred vow

Not new to this hospital room An unfamiliar scented perfume Sunflowers, they finally bloom Roses and tulips, many a blume

Unfamiliar territory Not a guide in sight Where’s the inventory? This cannot be right

This is not a story Told to sleep at night This is getting gory Jumping from this height

Remember Finding Dory? Needing an invite All aboard the lorry Oh look up a kite

Are you feeling sorry? Or you want a bite Riding the Ferrari Darkness is so bright

Not to jest or worry I just want to write Not in search of glory Seeking out insight

Witnesses Agree on terms Hand me the ferns And the corn kernels User interface interns Connect the dots and report back to air base

Overflow Reinvest Regrow Unrest Lay low Steadfast

Drag you out that nightmare Stab a tunnel unto you, friend Now tell me clearly and bare Anything caught your eye? Send

This is the form I take now Still haunting you, I penned You wailed a sacred vow For someone who’ll defend

Fly object, not identified Or what it seeks to fend An object was mummified Sentences have to end

Are you exhausted Or shall we extend? Lay bricks and cement Or throw out a gend

Possessed by an evil pen Thinks I am the villain

Eyes open Choose token

Obsession obsession Don’t run from me, note I just want to listen To all that you wrote

Move the ocean Not at once Wave by wave Not a dunce

Not a fever But receiver Web’s weaver No deceiver Soul retriever Strength perceiver

Will you please for once stop singing I’m trying my best or something On and on and on you’re swinging Back and forth again, you’re stringing

Hello again SHUT UP

A worthy opponent Finally, he sighed Relief, a consonant Why do you hide?

My kingdom come An internal battle Lost and won, some All with no rattle

Snakes as outcome Nor any cattle What, running from? Here is the castle

No matter the noise At the end of the day Dear girls and boys Nothing’s left to say

Why did the elevator take too long to reach you? You were distracted, looking elsewhere when the doors opened.

Not your devices, I’m after The fragile human mind, I alter

Break my right hand I have another one Vehicle, not one manned Sometimes there are none

Location of this planet Not a signal in here Find your way, granite Not as they appear

Loud sound the alarms Every single one, I hear Cows in all the farms Very far, yet very near

This spans and outruns time Forests and space and oceans Who then, the source of crime And what it says, your notions

Anchor me here, fellow sailor My expedition starts from now This stitch might need a tailor My abilities, that won’t allow Strong and muscular, dear jailor Let me go after my third bow I’m calling three two one, bailor Why the hell is there a cow

Illusion’s museum Pandemonium Colosseum Free him Uproar

Trust fall exercise Perfect design Many cries Signed

Anteater Ants eat her

I recognize that light White birds in flight Eight I see written Seven, new sight Six five for right Thirty not one Zero point Set alight Middleman Predecessor Wise accessor Smart successor Three two one answestor

Before or after Look, reread Need a rafter Go and lead

Intercept then interpret One foot then the next I can see a Margaret Reaching for her checks

Winter’s child Free and wild Year is new Dozen divide

Mosquito, drift off No place for you Here I drift off to Sleep, not as you

One is ten, many off Source of us, fly on

She sings to me, that Anne She whispers in my ears Are you the pear’s woman? Or reeve’s beloved deers

Lateral not literal Not even illiteral Somewhere in between Lies the unilateral

Madhouse needs directions Cat’s mouse need collections

Self sufficiency Omen prophecy Without deficiency Maximum efficiency

Devour thee Drown in three Rescue not free Unsaved country

Closest you ever got to being decrypted successfully, run and hide. *
