A Journey Within My Mind

Long I lain on the couch of my mind Battling with left and right paths that leads to journey eternal Away from the physical-earth but to spiritual realms I'm confussed either to run the left Or to make the right stand-still Just to fetch me out of eternal trouble The right for the Jews And the left for the gentiles I don't know where I belong Later, I sat in a cab of my thought I moved from something to nothing From sense to non- sense Along the lane of great turmoil And darkness is the street-light That leads my way to the grave of indecision I choose the right path, Just to follow the footprint of my fate With the hope of not coming back Yet stagnant I was, But it is a crappy journey within my mind Adesitimi Taiwo

Welcome to the soup. You have penned an original masterpiece of thought. Love those metaphors, I am still learning about those. Tricky things, but you use them well.
