1020. CAN'T BRING MYSELF (Bartleby)

CAN'T BRING MYSELF
(Bartleby)
Can't bring myself to cross,
to pass the exit, to waver to
a stop. I just go on, do I?
There, where the big, round
tree once stood, now merely
the stump. There, where the
door was always open, now a
closed entry. Nothing more.
Can't bring myself to that.
Sit down and find the moment.
Think how words can be.
(Just ask Bartleby).
