No Man's Land (after Emily Dickinson)
The no man's land
is not nowhere
but hidden
within oneself
the labyrinth
left alone
terra incognita
where no seed is sown
that wasteland
the owner can't claim
the dark cave that can't
be lit by the brightest flame
time rushes on mindlessly
and will not arrested or tamed
the self shrinks and dissolves
its life morphs into a sorrowful game
