Trapped in a forest I parachuted in, a haven to spare me from humanity, one soul adrenalized learned to defend. In my hopeful woods I camped to forget, drew dreams in the sky with eyes that once could see; visions carved like a fool, struggle aimless in the dark nights. Navigating the lay of furry, green land, I witnessed brilliance in streams and a renewed face, distorted, ready to believe. The longer I foraged and trusted this Eden, I realized a projected fantasy in me, similar to my visions, a virtual reality. I hadn't lived, but gave myself to wolves with schemes to devour my spirit before my meat. I camp at the river of sorrow, the edge of tomorrow. I could put one boot outside these woods and never look back. I made this strange place my own; but, I owe something deep within. I owe myself freedom in true civilization one more chance. 8.23.20 I could pack this with so much more, about a virtual world where I landed seeking rescue, thinking I could find my way through a strangely familiar and comforting land only to realize I had isolated myself from me within the convenience of virtual reality...or something like that. |
