somebody's dungeon

0 posted 2003-03-01 12:05 PM



There are times I play
within my mind,  
  games of thought.
  No war is fought,
just simple moments
filled with peace.

I've often wished
for more of these,
transparent wishes
turned to dreams,
playing in mind it seems,
looking to be reality.

That is now my malady...

Traversing lines of idiom
gleaned from myriad medium
I'm accosted with visions
filled with derision,
looking, again looking
for the road out of mind.

wonderful poem.  It sounds like you have a lot of thoughts in your head.  I do as well.  I hope you find that road,  heck, I hope I find it too.

Is it so bad to remain lost in thought? That's how I spend most of my time!

That's what we, as heroes, do. We live as if the world were like it should be, to show the world what it could be.

Yes, I echo all that's been said here.

Very well written, this maze.
