Look here
   within these 
      words and
Peel away the 
   social fog
And gaze intently
Deep within the haze
Of mazes
Glazed
Within the linings
Of my consciousness

Consume
The fiery mists
That drift 
Around
   and up and
      through
The mirrors
Shattered
In the birth
Of silence
Ventured on the edge
Embryonic
   violence
