THE MINE OF TRUTH

dirty and dark

hard to breathe

confused about time

feeling my way

suddenly a light        the mother lode      revealed at last      crystals of truth      I clawed them

My own discovery

the truth blinding

age behind me

the light stayed on.

 

self discovery

Cheers David . I went with the three word format as its a discipline . When you are underground there is a sort of distress to look back so I felt that pressure there. Thanks for liking it.

Cynthia, thanks for comments. Regrettably, the format on the blog is different from the typed version which has centred text throughout and has that line I clawed them as one phrase... I'll have to check that in future!!
Well spotted. Ray

Very much enjoyed. And an interesting format. Any reason why 'them' is not attached to its phrase? It then becomes a major line isolated in that way, but not, IMO, a major thought when separated from 'I clawed them'. A respectful question only.
