C-2: There Goes Bill!
You're trapped in a situation not of your doing. How did you end up there, and what can you do to get out of it? Kicking lizards out of chimneys optional. Short story (<1000 words) or poem (<40 lines).

I'm caught, heart
racing into nightmare,
too wound up for rest.
How can I sleep while
the dragon rages? My eyes
are weighted and dim
and I need rest to escape
this block, but my stomach churns,
and my mind races
and I'm trapped--
frozen at the edge
of the ending.
