Imagine everything,

         everything you know,

                everything you own,

everything you ever believed to be true

   one after another

                      taken from you,

                      leaving you,

              no longer choking you

until

                           You

                                                      is all

                      that is left,

       a naked point in empty space.

                 Yes

it feels like death.

                 And then,

                                   you take a breath.
