I'm in a lexical maze
A place that I don't know
Word trees surround me
Which way should I go?
I use a D
To disappear
But I lose D,I,S
And yet I'm still here
So I tried M
To become Microscopic
The land becomes smaller
Before I can stop it
Insufficient
Stops my pounding fist
The temperature drops
As I become mist
I am a volcano
Tempered with ice
I'm a murderous wild elephant
Surrounded by mice
I'm bringing the light
And I'm gonna to shine
But darkness encloses the
Brightness of mine
