Colin Dodds: The Labyrinth in the Third Millennium

February 5, 2015 by PBQ

Look at the world and consider its plans for you.
Lost is the best you could hope to be.

The middle of a darkened wood
Is all you should expect of good.

Everyone says help me.
But you aren’t supposed to take it literally.

The nightmare’s purpose
Is to hide the actual nightmare.

You have to surrender and surrender
To get to the real war.
