Deep

A poem from 1993

Mountain top
I never see you
trapped
in a cave
deeper and I lose my way
crawling
through water
the drowning man
has a better life

Out
How do I find this way?
Deeper and I lose this vision
in the darkness
I hold a hand
but not so tightly

Further
into this sickness
cutting
all links
Lying
to myself
to bring a happiness that eludes me
in rich moments

I belong
in the high places
but I grovel
in the dirt
