Convoluted

  • Wine convoluted his mind as he thought back
  • In a space dark as your mother’s womb,
  • and there he was
  • He walked forwards and did not mind the shadows consuming him
  • it was second nature
  • Everything was coming to an end anyway
  • Hatches, latches, spaces
  • It fit in his mind as he fitted in them
  • and he went forward; and it was dark
  • and in there he found
  • What?
  • And there was
  • Eternal void; you see your dreams forever
  • No.
  • This is how it was: he went onwards in cracked spaces
  • And minerals were around him like mist
  • Seeping in
  • He hoped for conclusion, like his mother’s voice
  • and he went on
  • First stop, a dark hole
  • He waited there for a thousand million years;
  • he made up his mind and went down
  • And in the dark he found dark and in the dark he found
  • the expected and.
  • He went on.
  • Sounds and noises all around
  • But it was second nature
