Out towards the outlands
Where the
earth
It meets
the sky
and
The sun
Burns down
In feverheat

And the
Brackish water
Holds
no life
Where
nightmares
Rule
the day

When you
look around you
There’s no one
to be seen
And the sounds
that issue forth
Are harsh primeval
screams
It’s then,
and only then
That you know
That you
are lost

You look out towards
the light
Where dark forbidding
monoliths
Stand still
against the sky
While sounds of
souls in torment
Come tearing through
your brain
And white hot
purple insects
Are boring through
Your veins

You reach
out
to a half
remembered
Light

But

There is


Nothing
