Inside the Side Inside

in the left corner of the shadow
below the darkest spot
something hidden watches us
eyes black like deep lakes
It looks like a dream but it's a nightmare
we are going down the steps
into the dirty world
the darkness dares and dominates everything
because it perceives and pursues
the scent of absurd fear:
our mind wandering
inside it's filthy alleys
