A Trapped Mind

Winds of variation blow, eyeless in sight, never knowing the tide is ever flowing. 

The stars eclipse and matrix shift, cosmic feelings from a heart brings freedoms evocations. 

Smudge now and pay later, a prayer for peace written down in a book of lies.  

A maiden voyage with every turn of the page, invocations abound changes are profound. 

Musing as it happens a muted sole, but demented laughter where no one could capture. 

Unfolding the envelope finding what’s unfair, new thing a sound heart beating something new 
to be found. 

Still to be told from a luminous heart of gold, a story that everyone knows, but truth has 
never been told. 

Trapped in a mind from light to light having no strength or temerity to break external. 

In A Trapped Mind.
