Dream Scream Poem by Philo Yan

Looking up onto the ceiling
a banshee was floating
In a eerie way, she was grinning
Sharpest fangs shining white
Her sunken sockets staring
without eyes, without a nose
Long hair flowing like tentacles
Flickers like hungry serpents
my heartbeat quickens
pumping faster and faster
I could not breathe
I could not move
My throat was tight
I could not scream
She was screaming
screaming at me!
I could not wake up
from this nightmarish dream!
