Journey through the Maze

The journey into the green maze
with its obsolete confusing paths
into the barren lands forth
as dust storm rises
above the horizon
hiding the melancholic clouds
and hiding the bushy undergrowth
the drugs of hallucination
now wears off.
tinkering the senses,
a twitch I now feel in my bones.
Choices I made
Along the turns
Between the right and the left
Back and forth
under the troubled sky
have now withered with the storm
into the barren lands forth

Fear brews
reasons evaporates
sweat percolates
everything fades in that moment
when the sky is a crimson haze
and I journey through the maze
