A Frozen Heart [revised] Poem by Margaret Alice Second

Tried something new for breakfast, now I’m
allergy depressed, the world I could barely
see now moved away completely, stomach
burning, nose constricting and ears zinging

Head starting to stretch and I can’t count or
say the alphabet, the thin silver line between
me & reality is growing thinner and soon my
feet won’t touch the ground, not because I’m

Floating but being in Dungeon Dimensions
where the sands of time stretch out eternally
and Lady Time haunting glass castle corridors
seeking her missing son, my emotions freeze

Being fragile, break on the glass of my blue
porcelain doll I’m frozen here, the black hole
in my head imploding until nothing is left -all
is gone, encased in frozen lead I cannot

Move, rooted to the spot - everywhere is
nowhere and nowhere is nothing, there’s
no world any more - sounds and forms
without meaning, a frozen heart dies
