The Two of Me
: Tunnels We Dig by QC Poet

The Tunnels we dig Aren't ever very Deep!
Its Depth may depend On a Promise to Keep?
If swept and Kept will many Lies still Seep?
Dig a little Deeper you'll Hear a small Peep!

Will this Tunnel allow you To cross any Bridge?
If this tunnels Path lays past Truth's Ridge?
Feel deep inside it gets Ice cold like a Fridge,
Tunnel vision Thoughts freeze us Down to a Smidge!

Hidden deep in the Caves of Our own Minds?
Finding safety in our Brain's tunnels it Whines!
Lost to rebuild Later tunnel on More it Binds,
A rising Volcanic tunnel Erupts the First chance it Finds!

Flow in this tunnel Will depend on it's Size!
Movement of a Stream buys Its biggest Prize,
More lies to Lay higher till Death add Plys,
Can't Hide a bad Principle dressed In a New Guise!
