New Place, New Location, Same Person.
I watched someone move
a million miles away to escape,
themselves,
only to find themselves tangled inside
themselves again.

The way you express 'self' is profound Niks..feels for once the evasive orbitals of an so-eccentric self, of but pure souling cosmic energy one is in micromacro fill... getting fatally dragged as if evicted as desired , only to feel the eternal pull of our nucleic gravity ev holding one.. taking making one ...i feel this as the core funda the adamantine basicism that one is , that is beautifully eternal , despite the changes shaping influencing the frame the mind ..juz me Niks from your splendid minimalism as ev .light & love xx

Where forever we go—there we are. We cannot escape ourselves.
A very astute observation, Nikki.

Dear N,
An unfortunate truth. We are always right next to ourselves. I’ve tried countless times to leave me behind and dang if I don’t show up again and again. I love the eloquence of Uma’s reply. I fear I fall short of that mark. Your poem is a masterpiece of brevity in describing the “you can run but you can not hide”. Well done. H🌷

Stuck with ourselves sometimes can feel like the very worst... yet I strive to improve that notion in my head, daily (ok minute to minute.. lol.) .. to make the best out of being stuck in a run but you can't hide, kinda vibe...
Your ink is truly some of my favorite to read and visually bask in.
(plus, I giggle at the unicorn, fairies, etc themes...every time. always a smile there..)
Ty for sharing, Nik
I am always so grateful (happy, intrigued so many other positive adjectives, too.. ) to see your notifications...

No matter where we move we always arrive with the same two suitcases filled with habits and attitudes. Thanks for the reminder. Hugs and peace, oral

No matter how far one may go, it's what's on the inside that drives us.
Thought provoking write.
