Warp

I took four grams of truth and I came up
to peak where I threw all the names up
that I'd worn through the years and they glittered like gems
and then scattered like petals and left me at ends
with myself
just a beacon of eternal light
in an eternal hole that was blacker than night
and I searched for the title they made the birthright
of a body I couldn't feel to find
as the great treasured litany of things I’d been called
emptied from me and I filled up with awe
their hollow words echoed around me
