Canon Of The Familiar
The Hanged
Surrender to the process.
Nobody touches you.
To be reshaped.
Open and undecided.
Controlled by what you chose.
Suspended.
Inverted, everything rearranges.
What you protected is now exposed.
What you led with now trails.
The blood goes where it wasn't invited
and finds things there
you'd been successfully ignoring.
The floor is right there.
You could end this.
But you don't.
Not because you're brave.
Surrendering isn't always an option.
Sometimes it's all that’s left
after everything else has been tried.
So you hang.
Nobody touches you.
There’s no need.
You're already becoming
what you were always
making yourself into.
You just can't see it yet.
You're facing the wrong direction for that.
