Lost
A Seventh Piece of Dark Poetry. When You Are Lost In A Dark Place With No Way Out.
This is my seventh dark poem for Dharrsheena.
T๏ปฟhe music is "You Want It Darker" by Leonard Cohen from his final album, but maybe you don't want it darker. I certainly don't.

You Canโt Remember Who You Are
How You Have Come To Be This Far
From Feeling Confident And Safe
Feeling Threatened By Fear And Hate
๐ค๐
Every Direction Is Wrong
The Feeling Of Dread Is Strong
Thereโs One Way In But No Way Out
Every Thought Fills You With Doubt
๐ค๐
You Know There Will Be No Escape
Your End Assured By This Dark Fate
How It Will Come You Do Not Know
Lost In Your Mind, Death Says Hello
๐ค๐
You Are Exhausted, You Lay Down
A Body In Unhallowed Ground

The Irony of Flying While We Bomb the "World's Greatest Terrorย Regime"
Ah, the irony of flying at this moment in time as the United States is simultaneously bombing Iranโ-โ the nation officials have insisted for decades is "The World's Greatest Terror Regime"โ-โwhile the TSA is on a go-slow, courtesy of a funding squeeze that's left its officers unpaid, quitting in droves, and turning checkpoints into something like slow-moving bread lines.
