A Poem by Brandon M. Whittaker
"

Blehskis

"

Close your eyes

Take a breath

Let it out

Feel every muscle in your body tense

Then relax...

Open your eyes

Watch it happen

Your mind shrieks to stop it

But your body is deaf

Particular emotion holds your limbs tight

Constricting your chances as much as your movements

It's getting closer now

You feel it on your face

The temperature is increasing

Your eyes want to water

But are as try as a desert

Your mouth wants to open

You want to scream

But that emotions which holds physically

Now too holds vocally

Here it comes

The heat

The incineration of hope

Preceeds your final thought

Of home.
