my only demon is me

my fingers are lions,
war-wagers with my tiny demons
lacking some subtleness, but true as anything mine, i try
to take myself on in harsher
lights that any other target
of which i have none.

i am a lion without prey.
i am the ghost of tribulations.

this is not a sad song, i am just warming up,
just getting going, getting ready for
this whatever-happens-happens lifestyle.
more than waiting. i am coming on. coming on.
