Numb

I love the numb..

The non-remembering

The not remembering 

The shuttering of thoughts... memories that won’t let go

I want them to go

To zip quickly away 

So I can’t feel their moment, their import 

So the residual detritus 

Doesn’t taint every minute

Numbness is coping

When does the level of need abate

To where I don’t 

Want

To feel so numb
