.26 off

my heart said yes, but my head said no.




so i cut it off.













grin,
but i'm serious.


the problem is though,
that like a computer,
you can't turn it off.

think about it,
you switch off a computer,
shut down,
a blank lifeless screen.

but when you turn it on again

has moved on.

how?

is that behind the dead chirade
something was still moving,
still ticking
still changing.
it is still there,
and
it
can
not
be
turned
off.


and so it is.
the other part of me,
the thinking, knowing side.


but still,
i can pretend...
