For Nette Onclaud's Seven By Seven Poetry Contest 

This poem is based on a true story. In the late 80's when we lived in Bay area, CA, I was traveling back to our apt from Sacramento with just my young son. On our way home we saw this giant maze along the freeway, so we took the exit to have some fun together. This ended up being a nightmare for us. I believe we were stuck in there at least two hours, maybe three, and it was getting dark, so I could not wait for the owners to somehow rescue us! To this day, I hate mazes! It was terrifying! I don't even recall how we got out of it. They might have helped us!
