Labyrinth

What is the mind
but an endless labyrinth someone else
is trying to escape?

So close/

for you to follow &
penetrate with your wild wisdom & grace.

Forge your own way
through my bones
that I may ever grow

When I listen,
I can hear you within.
I’m not trying to trap you but
maybe I do want to
