SUNDAY IS FOR POETRY: Hysteria
The noose dangles
The gun's cocked
The water's deep
The razor's sharp.
The speeding train heads towards me
while I hallucinate my way out.
Stunned at the impact of your saving tackle,
yet satisfied;
my face is where it belongs
in the now wet, red dirt.
These scrapes are nothing
to the scars
my psyche must bear.
Dear God, I'm scared.
I'm fading
in the growing dark.
The noose dangles
The gun's cocked
The water's deep
The razor's sharp.
Thank God!
I feel you beside me.
