I hope you enjoy the show

old wounds opened
a pain I'd thought I'd moved past
scars that lingered 
believed to be preserved over

how can something dead come back to life?
something erased, still, be present in our minds?

It all comes flowing back
a wave of feelings, obsessions 
that nothing can subdue
and nothing can suppress

it was never erased
it was only buried 
buried deep, buried well
thought out and curated, intentionally

but regardless of its severity
it reappears the same
no matter how engulfed in ones subconscious, it remains

a haunting, the realest of anything that exists in our world
but what poltergeist can be performed to make it go away?
none. it will never leave until the simulation is successful
our present reality is but a testing ground

variables and constants we are
playing the game while our reactions are documented

i hope I give an exciting and memorable response
regardless or as expected as it may be

I hope to be an outlier
viewing my pain as pleasure, I hope to skew the results 
unpredictable and unresponsive....exciting nonetheless

02101999
at least let it be a number you remember 

relieve me with my conscious dignity
and leave me with your transient curiosities
