messiah

i am nostalgic
for a life
that has never
been. i live

the way i choose.
The "day to day fight
for existence,
a world not fit

for redemption,
the whims and wrath
of nature" promise
me that i will

forever lose.
so i hold on
to every keepsake
and refuse,

and stake myself
meaning for you
to choose when i
have no longer use.
