Hermit Crab Poem by Shane Engisch

Hermit Crab



I know this place well
It is where I dwell
At times it can be forgotten
Ergo it is my shell

Reverberation fabricates strings and lines that demonstrate
Echos driven back to source with insanity to placate

Lessons are never learned within such solitude
Until a rupture occurs defeating meaningless platitudes

Fundamental discretion against complacent and ill-comforts
Do not take away visibility from the truth that sometimes hurts

Cracks emerge, illumination transcending
A surge, then an urge to crush this shell circumventing

I know this place well
It is where I dwell
In time I do remember
Ergo I leave my shell
