DREAMSCAPE : MAELSTROM

 
The eyes are closing
In the maelstrom


Maelstrom of black


Foreign
Characters
Glyphs on the rim
Indigo


I know not the meaning
But understand


I drift
It is cold
And the heat is
Unbearable


Oppressive patterns
Swirling
In the maelstrom


The dark becomes tangible
Pressing upon me
And there is
Children's laughter


Gives way to screams


An eye opens in the centre
Shows me what I need


It is the gaze of death
Drawing me in


I know there is light
Behind
But I am locked in tangent
Between colour


I can not adjust this course


And the eye closes
In the maelstrom
