The name means nothing;
I’ve no idea why it was chosen
or what it’s intended symbolism could be.
I tell myself
I’ve made peace with “Rnsrk”;
I feel for him and his struggles.
All of that is true,
but when I see those letters,
that face
returning from across the planet
to lunge back
into my world
I shudder.
I’m making too much of this.
I don’t want them to read this.
I don’t want them to know
how much this still hurts me,
even after almost seven months.
“Fuck.”, I curse,
which immediately makes me smile.
Fucking “Rnsrk”
is what got us into this mess in the first place.
