Terminal
April 5, 2016
To silence trepidation,
I conduct a small ritual.
Picturing my last day,
the terminal where I depart,
the time when I vanish.
I recognize I am on-air,
moments become fugitives.
The vivid outlook I adopt
washes myself of fear,
incites me to touch the truth,
hinders me from being an escapist.
