disorientation
-mild term to describe
waking up in a different world, stepping
on different ground
aligning to rare light
A child of darkness knows
the depth of nights
This transparent sheath reveals my only soul
There’s no face or mask
to show identity
Countless dimensions show
measurements on fire
I’m trapped in a closed space called infinity.
yearn for freedom in
ascertainable worlds
Chosen form – Double Ennead

Thanks, Colleen! This was originally done for “Around the Campfire” journal which was stalled. I used it here because it suited the theme.
