James Allan Ross: Looking Inward

H a l f - A w a k e,    H a l f - A s l e e p

Half awake, half asleep
I see the world through two pairs of eyes
the truth is in the second

I can see the living
but something inside
turns outward

I am trapped here by myself
my own warden and executioner

I will never breathe
but in a false world
