Closing The Book On Sanity
Traveling blindly
Through worlds of the bizarre.
Graffiti thick on the walls,
Some so old that it's bored itself in
Becoming part of the wall itself.
Pains run deep here,
Blood in the cracks
Of long abandoned hallways.
Tears leak from moldy ceiling tiles.
I'm lost here
In a world I've known since birth.
Each moment stranger than the last,
Each person somehow odder than the others.
My hands:
Stone, cold, white.
My staring eyes,
Seeing nothing.
Unspoken words ring out
From every corridor.
What will become of me
Here in these strange environs?
My grotesque features move,
Stumbling past dancing
Miracles of grace.
The floors are littered
With times sands
And faded pictures
From my memories.
