THE MAZE

Robert Bissonnette 1978 (Springfield Massachusetts)



THE MAZE

My mind is like a maze

that's been abandoned

and worn down with

many scary things

lurking in the deepest

darkest places within.

There is no escaping

for the monsters are

everywhere with their

sharp claws and pointy

fangs for they roam

this maze looking to

devour your soul.
