Shades of Metaphor I roar in nightly soar Among my shadows metaphor From mad to glad I wade In and out its plaid of shade Searching my murky dim The working of my psyches whim That hovers o’er my bare And bickers me with tricks ensnare Contrariety of men That cannot find an open glen That wonders in the mist Searching out their private gist That hosts and bides their crime Those ghosts that ride the sands of time That guides me through this dwell And tides me o’er its fires hell While I in hopeless nightly cry Drawn and quartered a bed of why |

I read this as a metaphor of the inner mind that is full of contradictions that can and will lead us astray. Robert Jordan was correct to praise your talent. |
