Ressentiment on Aug 17


Ressentiment

Feeling again
the “cause” of frustration
but the cause has no real effect

feeling again
only my imagination
brings about this personal defect

getting stuck in futures
now/here superseded
beyond where I’m butchered
forward falling, impeded

being stuck in the past
now/here subsumed
beneath where I’m cast
backward leaning, doomed

nowhere later, nowhere then
now/here now/here now/here
naming demons
zen
