did i do this
or is it happening
to me

how much agency
can there possibly be

was my fate baked
into an ill-fated cake

or will its flavor depend
on some as yet unrealized dream

curious
these questions

the gravity is stunning
is it any wonder so many of us are caught running

but i suppose the precise pose
is of little consequence

for however this end might be
some version of the trap will inevitably trip
just the same

Peace
