watch closely
and assume nothing.
you live in a maze
a labyrinth of time.
stumbling through invisible walls
running into your own reflection.
who do you see there--
is that you?
     a distorted picture
of what you thought you knew.
who is your friend--
is that him?
     a distorted picture
of what you thought was true...
how will you handle your mind--
in a labyrinth of time

watch closely,
and assume nothing.

DgVarner,
  I get an eerie feeling reading this(looking over my shoulder, did something just brush past or was it an illusion).The cautionary words, Watch Closley, Assume nothing are chilling! Very mysterious piece!

When the veiling cloud has past
Playful shadows dance
