Metamorphosis

.

I am becoming

a stranger

to myself.

.

My comfortable avatar,

my resting self,

my go-to default,

is dissolving—

fading into

transparency,

redundancy.

.

Once-familiar,

regular, routine

habits

now crumble

like dust phantoms

to the touch.

.

Tangible,

subtle

peace

washes away

neurotic concern—

for there is

no one

left to feel

exposed.

.

The world

is registered

in minute detail,

a living haiku—

yet,

wholeness,

completeness,

perfection

unifies all

in a radiant

presence,

.

gently erasing

concepts,

ideas,

structures

that no longer serve.

.

Simple

wonder

reigns.
