Reflection

The darker the sky, the closer the insanity

creeps

Finding my mind and burying itself

deep

Slowly, quietly at first, is faceless

pain

Silently places around my neck a thorny

chain

Throws me down, drags me away to

fight

When I'm released, I scream and

bite

Moving and sweating through the steamy

convection

I glimpse my opponent, my own

reflection
