No Escape Here
I am lost here
With no escape,
Oozing good cheer
Now ever drapes.
Feel hurting pains
Seize and possess,
Cold drenching rain
Now floods access.
Time seems too late
To unplug fear,
Here by odd gate
Seek long-lost cheer.
Lost in deep thought
In surreal lands,
Crisscross crude clot
Last bloody stand.
Cold as brain freeze
In numbing chill,
A leaking sneeze
Scatters dumb will.
Dance deep defiance
This profound fool,
A sad alliance
As folly spools.
Crude with loud noise
The fatal dive,
In spite of voice
No poise survives.
No one can save
The stupid face,
Save love most brave
In touch of grace.
Yes you can see
No escape here,
Except to free
Soul's mosaic cheer.
