Transparent

Heads spinning in multiple directions
And eyes darting into space.
They roll back and fall into darkness
And confusion piles up again.

Brains working continuously
Throughout the neverending night.
Yet nothing ever becomes solved
In the hours spent solo.

Not one single tangled thought
Weaves its way through the mess
Of compound substances
Thrown together reluctantly.

So the buzzes remain within
Of the locked-in burning hole..
And the eyes stare through all the midst
To show that nothing is hidden.
