All Our Nightmare Poem by Stephen Parkes

All Our Nightmare



I feel a black shape taking form,
infiltrating to the core, I
hear footsteps approaching,
faceless, a figure, intimidating

Forced, compelled, into a corner,
we search for signs that lead us from
danger; wandering, we follow
the path of least resistance

Disconnected, the truth, must be
made to comply with reality
This is the struggle involved, as
the imperative becomes the
impossible
