A mystic silence fills my ears.
The noise of the rotating fan
dissolving into the void.
My probing eyes, feel as they scan

the room and its walls.
The emptiness of my mind
projects unto the world
through a lens of peculiar kind.

I see but I do not see!
I hear but I do not hear!
To stare into the darkness beneath the light
A condemnation? A curse? A gift?
