Mush (Amberly ©3/12/13) Poem by Amberly Orlando

Falling into an empty space
Everything slows its pace
Nothing in and nothing out
An intelligence drought
Consciousness is fuzzing
Background noise is buzzing
Falling down a black hole
Deep and dark as coal
An empty abyss
It's endless
Electricity tingling all around
But nothing reaches this far down
Until a sudden flash of light
That instantly recovers my sight
My eyes adjust to reality
Oh wow, everyone is looking at me
"Sorry" I say as I blush
My brain turned to temporary mush
