A Very Dangerous Thing














even now the battle rages,
deep within cavern walls,
victory but a moment away,
lying just beyond
the frozen landscape;
so close,
so far;
defining moments come
and go,
providing very little
meaning,
a temporary fog,
a momentary diversion,
a slight pause in the program,
a necessary distraction;
surely,
the price has been paid;
I feel the slithering presence,
I know the approaching omnipotence,
it is never far behind,
seeking more,
thirsting for the last drop,
sucking the last breath,
taking all there is to give,
hiding within the night,
running from the light;
giving in with barely a fight;
destinations change with the season,
faces never what they seem,
understanding no longer an option,
lost inside this never ending dream,
you know the answers,
you know the way,
you know the truth;
and that can be
a very dangerous thing.
