Analysis of The Hole

John S Bentley 1961 (Dallas TX)



The Hole
It’s just an empty hole black and dry the deeper I fall the further it goes no matter how hard I try when I look back from where I fell it  looks the same as where I am going an endless lifeless hole of inequity just falling, no sound no feeling your mind is overcome and reeling never to stop always to fall  that is how it is, since you’ve been gone that’s all black empty hole of despair
The Hole
