THE HIDING PLACE

(Olney, Maryland)

There is this private place that exists only or me!
It is well hidden away from prying eyes!
It is over there where you cannot see it,
Hidden away to serve as my personal reality refuge.
In times of my special needs sleep,
Or stress relief,
I go there to find myself again.
Never do I allow another personality
Entry into my personal, secret space.
To do so would…
Displace all the self-discipline progress I make there…
Be a disaster for you and your life.

The location of my personal space
Is locked away deep within the recesses of my memory.
The entry point is the unseen void
Existing between my sanity and my insanity.
I always enter draped in the protective cover of darkness --
Guided by the knowledge gained through the decades.

Even though I do not breath,
I keep my lungs smoke free.
Even though my heart does not beat,
I exercise my cardiovascular system.
I keep my thoughts clean and free,
All to embrace my need for self-control.
　　
I hug tight to the coldness…
I hold tighter to the darkness…
I hold tighter still to the caveats that control my existence.
Like the one that prevents me from stalking the daylight hours.
I covet the soil sprinkled on my bedding,
I hug tight to the approaching sleep of the undead.
All this tiresome effort to keep myself from preying upon… YOU!
