|
Uncontrollable addict... |
|
On a downward spiral towards my mortal end: and beginning. |
|
A dependence that |
|
I can never impede; neither wanting, nor able to. |
|
For I live and die for the compulsion. |
|
An experience few discover, and even less wish to return from. |
|
Troubled that it can't be shared. |
|
I must lead this life of seclusion, to hide my continuous revealing crusade. |
|
Far beyond a fixation, it is now my life's labor. |
|
Rudimentary equipment is all |
|
I utilize. |
|
A device so simple, yet so precise - an inaccuracy insures failure... |
|
Guile, yet effective for its only function... |
|
Assisting the voyage. |
|
My life in the care of this specially crafted tool; it is the only gray for me to return. |
|
I need to explore lain... |
|
There is s o much more to be known! |
|
Strapped to the mechanism, |
|
I prepare... |
|
Essential wires attach, restraints hold me into position. |
|
I'm ready... |
|
The flick of a switch steals the commencement... |
|
A controlled electric current is administered. |
|
The short lived pain |
|
I must pass through, is a mere token price... |
|
Clinically dead; yet |
|
I feel so alive. |
|
Here again, |
|
I know to explore in haste - time is restricted. |
|
My natural physical casing is of no use here. |
|
A sensation so welcoming is overpowering. |
|
I must resist the urge to stay... |
|
Turning away from the luminosity |
|
I see before me, |
|
I look for new areas to explore... |
|
It feels vaguely different each time |
|
I come... |
|
Could it be evolving? |
|
The only thing that is certain is that |
|
I'm being watched... |
|
Concentrating, |
|
I block out distractions. |
|
To tie in the increasing stream of thoughts, emotions, sensations, |
|
Insinuating what this place actually is... |
|
It must be a gateway of sorts: a collection point; |
|
Collecting at is now theirs. |
|
I know my time is almost up as |
|
I sense them approach, |
|
Far I am the latest acquisition |
|
I can roughly make out their silhouette... |
|
But this is not hour it is supposed to be. |
|
Agony indescribable hits rte. |
|
I'm pulled ungracefully from one reality to another. |
|
My journey complete as |
|
I'm artificially revived. |
|
I Slump forward into unconsciousness... |
|
Intense pain when |
|
I wake once more, in the marl world. |
|
It is of little concern; the knowledge gained is essential. |
|
I must return... |
|
There is s a much more to learnt must know what is really, beyond. |
|
But I must rest my weak mortal shell... |
