Inside the Dark
Blindfoldedbackwards
Hair in my face
suspended sideways
the blindfold - sheer cloth
drags me forward
backward.
Will my eyes see light again?
For now I only feel,
soft,
bristles
both irritating and peaceful
Back and forth
always in between
the peace
and the pain
which I know now
and always
here in the darkness
behind my backward eyes.
Inside the Dark
My light beams
forever
from inside.
Where in the obscure
cloud of darkness
is a glimmer of light,
always brightening,
no matter how tight we are blindfolded.
In the obscure cloud,
a glimmer of light brightens.
Makes me think:
How tightly and by whom
are we truly blinded?
