Ghosted Self

If self-possession means
To possess the self

Then it is
A contradiction in terms
For there is no self to possess
Or a misnomer
For body-possession

If self-possession means
To be possessed by self

Then it is
A misnomer
For being possessed — for the body
Possessed
By a ghost
Demon —

Exorcising intimacy —
Out of the body

To be
The self
