Deeper Yet

I fall beneath the reaches of mankind, Deeper into the vast darkness that befalls me, Never to touch the light of day again, Loneliness once again enthralls me. Merging into a deep dark unity, One with the darkness abounds, Ennui intensifies awareness of existence, Rejecting the physical world. Engulfed in a yawn by a world, A world of pure perception, Lost in a sea of unconsciousness , Disgust with life’s obsolete senses. Sleep naught, but never quiet awake, Clutch of humiliation inappropriate for life, Paralyzed confusion, diminished sight, Deeper into the depths of ineptitude. Condemned and banned, I rest in an utterance of conversion, Damnation beckoning me, Unable to continue, I sleep.
