Spillikin

In a grey moment On a humid morning As it happened This very plight A hurdled nodus Drubbed by the sun Spurn in decline Unarmed with scorn Pyrexia confirmed Haled down firm By dauntless heat Disregarding skies Poison elan A confident stride Carve an orifice Slither within Creating a dray As I rest my eyes Even though prior I woke Deeply I slept A dream of nothing Only blackness Center of hallow I stand a shadow Dark against the void I feel a breath A weak wind on my neck As I turn to see A hand grabs a hold of me I wake to the sound of laughing Taunting, screaming and stabbing Is this the haunting dream I was having? Proven to be real I attempt to grip at roots Quickly heaved through soil I trail behind a forming tunnel A path is sculpted A fate I was destined to find My feet dangle, tangled in time Woven in scratches I fall... Plummet forever Descend endlessly As I prepare to land Fires gnashing their flames I dissolve into ashes And sprinkle upon my corpse In fragments of the moment's past
