Smooth breath

I beset from your bated breath

Unless the stress that's given to me clear

Resides unfound and unclear

The key to my restitution lies in recognition

Opaque and sticky, defiance. Then remission

Upset and overreliant on bad positions

The lever's balance is set on a dud pivot

Problems unseen stay while shit thickens

While the root is left untapped

The branch kindles

This one I wrote at a point where I felt like I was falling into the same trap. It's me giving myself the same advice I give my friends which is that the first step to solving a problem is identifying it. The last two lines are me realizing that my problem at the time was already starting to catch fire while I was focusing on menial things.
