Tunnel Vision
In my tunnel vision way,
I can cancel out the ugly variety of things
that live all around me ---
That appear in distorted shapes and sizes ---
In the shadows they dwell ---
Collecting the smallest memories and largest dreams ---
They also steal into my nightmares ---
Highlighting the horrific aspects ---
So I won't forget when I awake ---
As if I could ---
Now my field of vision has narrowed down,
to that of the eye of a needle ---
Unfortunately the world is as big as ever.
