I have opened it
all the beautiful, dark things,
hidden, not in a box but in a reticent portal
a rabbit's hole of pent-up poisons
a sarcophagus of candlelit rooms
and inky black thoughts
a place where I fail to breathe
but desire to live
a place where I fear I may lose my sanity
in the quest for my awakening
