modernist

an art form

to break from it

to truly become this

it comes at a cost 

from your past

you must consume that

in your present

for the sake of your future

to break from that

to avoid permanently becoming it

 

you must become what you are

    accept all the trash

you must digest this with style

    make gold from the pressure

you must accept what this is

 

then hope for the best

hope it's not broken 

hope you're still there

  when you try it again

   and you will try this again

 

(you never come back,

   you know...

    you never really left)

 

welcome home

Now Get Out.

[John the Baptist]

Yes, accept all the trash. Let it be what it is and then let it go. Deny it and you'll never get rid of it.
