Translate

(I think) I am
          too
     in my head
          today.

Regardless of the medium
                    or method
     I can’t figure out how to
               translate
                    anything.

I lie back
     in
  the
      blur
          and try to make sense
                    of the      flashes
                    of the almost-too-clear
                                  somethings.

I keep writing personal things
     as if I were
         someone else –
     from a third-person perspective.
                     Not in a creative
                                 freeing way,
                          but from               a distance.
                      Not close enough
                              to get any clarity.

So I’ve been having trouble finding
           conclusions.

Nothing ever seems
           finished.
Nothing seems
           ready.
Everything seems
                   broken.
