"Mephistophilis: Solamen miseris socios habuisse doloris"
- Dr. Faustus by Christopher Marlowe
Inch by inch I slip into the crack
And find myself caught in the chaos that breeds
Deep within skull's Hidden caves.
Restless, enraged, it thrashes and snarls
And growls with gnashing of carnivorous teeth
That reek with the stench of all filth.
No words, no tunes no shapes can tame
This beast beyond language and shame.
So I switch off all the lights
and lock up all the doors
And burying my head within hands I pray
For a time when others can suffer and stew
In a world where each of my nightmares is true.
