fake it till you make it

if it feels like depression

it possibly could be

not the definitive “is”

just the spatiality of “might”


the only thing known for sure

is the pain and pressure 

behind gray eyes and sinus

the throbbing that spreads

to ears and upper mandible 

a body sore when waking 


get out, show up:

fake it till you make it

or die trying
