Buying my
anonymity
each day
is costing more
The mortgage
on new moments
signed in blood
their payment sure
In plain sight
hides my essence
for as long
as I can pay
In debted
bliss
my soul is pledged
— to go from day to day

Another well composed poem Kurt that flows with its rhyme and sends its message well

Thanks so much.
most welcome
Kurt, what a powerful portrayal of concealment as an accumulating obligation. Remaining unseen offers protection, yet every borrowed day demands another portion of the self...a painful tension I know all too well. Brilliant work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Cogency again, thanks.
