Analysis of A Doorless Mystery
Hitchhiking through the wormhole,
all time was left behind
Distance collapsing upon itself
reflections other side
Waste material of a life unspent
flowing back in a parted stream
Entry to a doorless mystery
—from a lost forgotten dream
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2015)
