Inside Outside

Inside Outside all around
in feelings our lives abound
like roadmaps to places
where we know no faces
and settling is never here.

Overwhelmed into blind fear
most of us teeter some brink
where mental manacles clink
and we never escape fate
though we ourselves bait
our souls to find us,
through bother and fuss,
we know is always confusing.

Spirit we are contusing
if we get lost inside outside.
