Subscribetoo long have you gazed into the abyss …..
it has taken notice of you
and gazed back in turn
a dark look considers you with thoughtfulness
borne of unnumbered centuries
time’s passage; countless
both ancient and calm
a quiet consciousness
derived from deep and sober pondering
which springs from dreamy darkness
to draw in you its own depth of feeling
and make you and it one.
do you the strength possess
to draw away from the teetering chasm
and turn away, turn away again?
