The world is screaming
Morphed, twisted, spinning—
Where am I?
I can feel the world trembling
In the earth and the air—
Who am I?
Colors are blurring
Lines are swirling
Reality is bending—
What am I?
Chaos for an eternity
I can scarcely breathe
Now stillness has arrived
And captured me
Enveloping me
Like a picture frame—
Where do we go from here?
