Uncommon Sanity, Common Vanity

Crying against sanity,  

lashing sanity  

out of sanity,  

inside-out  

sanity.  


Now,  

sanity is a motion  

we argue against. 


We have misspelled  

Friend  

into Fiend  

in our letters  

to the unseen Listener.  


Trust in Him 

is a lost currency.  


We trade  

another’s gold  

for our own  

small goal.  


Each day  

we flicker  

like the hunter’s torches,  

blown out  

by a cold storm—  



uncommon sanity  

to

a common,  

disdainful  

vanity.
