Fuck

Dear lord,

I have a problem.
If I knew who you were
could I know me too?
If I crafted a mask
in His name,
would it hide me
and all my shame?
Without self
what is left?
I am afraid
to find out.

When walls
not of lies,
but
half-truths,
become too hard
to defeat
I will die alone
and live off
what little live earth
is left of what once was
the Pacific coast,
Big Sur

Family road trips
out to Pfeiffer creek
savoring cold water
running through fingers and hair
hot sun from the west
bathed in gold and green
clean water
sacred light
and fertile ground
and resenting
the three that sat far away
but never far enough,
apparently.

Fuck.
I have no identity.

- Katherine
