Weakness

Alphabets dance and garland,

Into words and sentences, 

No matter how inane.

The compulsion to be visible, 

Throbbing in each capillary.

The fear of oblivion – stifling, 

The opium of conspicuity –

Arresting, overpowering.

Mediocrity – an impatient bargain, 

A small price…to stay afloat.
