a descent into poetry insanity

why I left
I've never liked contention,
never liked the process of battering away
against an idea until another mind became
a more pleasing shape.

when attacked, I shift the ground,
fading away while my attacker
twists logic, flailing and spinning at nothing,
while I find another place to stand, unbruised.
