"freeze"

The world and I

are far too different;

the understandings and the misinterpretations

are the dip of an iceberg

that extends into the depths

of the cold navy abyss-

I tried to be like

them

and then I tried to stray away from

them

but I refuse to allow

them

to control me any longer.

The world spins on an axis

but we all float on the mantle

atop a piece of rock,

each one of us is miniscule

and we must act as equals

because as the universe freezes over

we will become so.
