The Labyrinth

my mind a labyrinth
usurping reality,
convoluting truth
into a serpentine
maze of fallacies

a fantastic world
created on my own
entrapping those
who know not their part
in this play
this maze
this mess

a fleece is thrown
begging for solace
for answers
for the key
that will put the choices
in someone else's hands
and untangle the trail
of untruths
and lead us all

... into peace
