the wide open spaciousness
of awakeville
didn’t need a golem
but mind
made one anyway
without telling anyone
the golem was translucent
and easy to miss
he could do most things
the old me could do
and better
secretly,
the golem was welcome
after all,
he was mine
one day,
the golem made a mistake
what’s wrong with the golem ?
a quick search of golem lit
revealed
golems have no particular lifespan
since they are not alive to begin with
the golem could malfunction
and stop
at almost any time
one day
it would be
for good
the golem tripped, fell,
slowly got back up, and
started walking
the wrong way
uh-oh.
the golem is running down.
he has shown himself
so terribly useful
at so may things
how he will be missed
the golem
of my attributes
my collection of the good
and the worthwhile
dissassembling
before my eyes
another precious mind creation
so much
for what
I thought
