By Alexis Lee
In liminal space,
Epiphany blooms
Then fades in eclipse,
In ennui.
The serendipity feels like a chimera.
Leviathan in Metropolis,
This totem of confusion
Transforms into mosaic rhapsody,
A labyrinth of alchemy.
Epitaph carved on the monolith.
The mind becomes a quagmire,
A parallax of what is real,
What is true.
