precipice

To know is to compromise in that knowing 

To seek and to know where the room you're in is

As always being in relation to others

And not always being able to hold on to that knowing

To seek out any given sense of place

To seek out and know your own size 

Is just one of those things that you know

Isn't going to happen 

But we'll pretend to know - until off guard 

We catch a glimpse of our volume reflected and sensed in 

Things usually ignored and passed by 

We know - like in that fucking nightmare
