Endless Maze Backrooms

(faint

sigh) Yellow wallpaper peeling down

Fluorescent

buzzing,

no

one

around

I turned the corner

to find the same hall

Cut through the plaster

and fell through the wall

Another level beneath the floor

An older latch on a sunken door (hummmm)

Nothing ends, it only sinks

Rooms inside of empty rooms Beneath the hollow beige

A copy of a quiet maze Turning page on page

(lost

again)

Office tile

turns to darker stone

Ceiling vents

breathing all alone

Every exit is an entry down

Buried underneath the sunken ground (shhhh)

Can you hear the current run?

Fell so deep the walls are glass

Watching another version pass

(no escape)

(down

and down)

It goes forever inward

Rooms inside of empty rooms Beneath the hollow beige

A copy of a quiet maze Turning page on page

(forever in the floor)

Still yellow

Still humming

Still falling
