Ego
Is it a furnace of coal?
Is it a bottomless well?
Is it the night of my soul?
Is it as unsafe as hell?
Is it might in its fullness?
From it, couldn't I return?
Is it death in absurdness?
Here, would I endlessly burn?
Do days, in it, look like nights?
Is it a whirlpooling sea?
Grief here, they say, like snakes, bites.
Is it a death trap in me?
It is my psyche's dark nook.
It's a poison-flowing brook.
