CONCENTRATION DELUSION

What drives me to lie, cheat, steal?

Inner conflict - forces that oppose.
repel like dual polarity.
Drains my power of reasoning, weakens my soul
like a scornful disease.

Resolution - avoidance - misery.

The towering walls close in and envelope me;
tentacles, sharp pointed needles neutralize
and I succumb.

Asleep.
I dream of a quiet place.

Disruptions, confusion.
Plunged into a deep coma of silence.

Held at the cliff's edge,
rescued as the frayed rope is relieved.

I become the rope and awaken
to soft voices
and a cool breeze.
