Submitting

by Carlyle Miller - Aquarius

Bought with half fire,
radiance-
a splendid shadow.
Concentrated on a single touch,
balanced nightmare
of former realities.
And in all of this there
was a brutality-
wide,
like the world,
cast within a small point of ignorance.
Yet I could not submit
to the gleaming edifices,
glass faces taunting me,
destroying the wisdom
of the pneumbra.
Am I,
alone,
chained to this place-
Pointed,
even balanced,
on recollection?
I cannot give in.
I am not alone!
