THE BEGINNING

by: Patrick Lee Hebert

I live in a haze

the perfect, alternate world

wild phase

dreamlike qualities.

I live in a haze

nostalgia can deafen

endless maze

recurrent qualities.

I live in a haze

there are faces staring

vacant gaze

hallowed qualities.

I live in a haze

reality fades

souls for trades

I’m in a cage.
