Sublime Denial
Denial
is the weakest form of self-defense;
I've known it for years - and yet
I reject the sublime,
for I have rested too long
in the pre-dawn shadows
dabbing at beads of knowledge
as they form on my brow
as if wiping them away
would make them cease to exist.
congenital heart defect,
poetry,
birth defects
