Hide and Seek

Life is not a game

hide
and
seek
by yourself
is a foolish game,
the shame
and the blame
of hiding,
the mess
and the cursedness
of your humanity
is that you..
can never
bless,
the rest of us
with the pieces
of you,
that connect
and resurrect
our worst
and our best
and so we keep
on striving,
for a ceaseless
perfection
that never
rests…
