In the cold light of day,
all I can see is fear.
The cockroaches
scuttled away
back into the darkness.
Now their shadow
fill the landscape.
Any attempt
to escape
is thwarted by
a gentle touch,
a warm smile, "
Hey, stay awhile.
There's suffering for
Everyone."
I'm forever torn
between joining
and going
somewhere else.
In-between.
