This Poem describes an intricate recollection of a dream.
I'm being chased, chased by boys...

around the edge of a hotel building
jagged edges, pointy and reaching with pain
the witch calls me
I must perform
I say no, but she chases
I run...run to the edges of the walls, thick with paint and their jagged tyrant Polygonal edges
the dog, he calms me and stares
he can't help me
the witch calls out...PERFORM!
I say no
This black witch with golden eyes, stamina evergoing
I give in, fall five million skies
she says...Die and Perform again
I say no..before I finish "don't take meee..."
She crosses death over me
I begin Death
TERROR SUCUMBS me
Body going numb
Organs shut down...Kidney's, Stomach, Heart..
I see, see her Golden eyes
I try to cry out but mutter silence
The world goes black

I wake...turn to my husband
He wakes with Sympathetic breath...
I cry, Hold his warmth close to me
He tightens his love and I know
I am grateful it was a dream...he is here...its just a dream
