Deep Delving
I am thousands of feet below your surface,
you're deep.
Your inner worlds are legendary
lovely to explore with a farseeing mind
but I'm going deeper
the landscape is changing,
hell holes spew a residual purulence
like long popped pimples
now they have become
rugged antediluvian volcanos.
The badlands slowly give way,
I enter alien territory
a spherical spacecraft is sighted,
no i'm mistaken
its a crusty old golf ball
you once hooked into the rough
in a former existence.
Sweet grassland now
but it's not of your earth or mine.
Perhaps it is a mind within a mind
it pulsates.
I am beginning to realize
that the only way out of here
is to be one of your dream lovers
we can share memories
of being worlds within worlds
two inner space beings
and deep
so very deep.
