The Thing You Fear Most ~ Trauma Drama Poem by Singleton M. Tate

...Cairo...
was her
...Name...


She
was a
...Loner
gone
...Licentious...


Lurking,
in the
...Back of her mind
was her
...Past Life...


She used to walk with Christ...


As,
She had given it all up
to
...Become
...A High-Roller...


I know
that
...You
have no
...Idea
about where
...I am coming from...


She was
...A Stripper....


One who
...Basked
in the
...Realm
of
...Money and Craziness...


What an
...Ignominious
....Downfall,
As
...She had
...No one to call...


When her,
...'Jacob's Trouble'
...Showed
...His Face...


What's 'The Thing You Fear Most? '


Lost,
in a
...Losing Race
making a
...Mad Dash
...Towards
the
...Gates
of
...Destruction's Base


She
only
...Functioned
in the
...World
of
...Self and Lust
for this
was
...A Must


It was
where
...She
felt
...Complete


Yet,
...Time
was
...Closing
in to
...Keep her
from
...The Light


As,
...The Night
was
...Darkest
this
...Day


When
...Cairo...
...Danced
the hours
...Away on
a
...Cocaine High


Floating,
through the
...Sky
as her
...Heart
took the
...Plunge


Now,
...The Thing
She most
...Feared
was
...Death


It,
...Sneered
and
...Jeered
as...She
...Gasped for
Her
...Last Breath


...Cairo...
was... Sentenced
to...Eternity
...Without Grace
