    Cliff

    The labyrinths of the mind
    So treacherous avenues
    A step in one direction
    can be rendered into two
    and the pretty lights ahead
    on the path that I prefer
    obscure the wreckage waiting
    just around that other curve

    Lights and colored sounds
    paint illusions on the way
    as the silent running demon
    pulls me harder in its sway

    The cliff is deep and vertical
    that earthquake fractured ground
    where the black hole at the bottom
    unrelenting pulls me down
    screaming in the fall
    there is nothing left to hold
    and the bright lights of the mind
    crash head first into the soul.
