Such a crowd

i nudge myself
to go forward
while another part
of me shouts no

i gravitate to
the divine I
reckon to be
another part
within me to deal
with the stasis,
lakeful of negatives
that imperiles action

of a sudden
existence
becomes
such a crowd
of selves hovering
over a decision
to be made
