Instant failure ahead

You seem to have the wrong idea

I have one face but six layers

And each dip you go further into

Black obis and hollow space

No light at the end of the tunnel

 

I wrote you a sonnet when I was

Devoted and committed to the idea of one love

One single entity to circulate a set of rules

Guidelines

You’re my marker for each page but

You’re starting to tear

And I threw away that ratty glue gun yesterday

 

Tomorrow is farther down the road

And I am stuck in a congested traffic in

The middle of nowhere

Next to a sign that says Do Not Return: Instant Failure Ahead
