clarity bending,
swimming, swarming...
time, warping.
suffocating to grasp these senses...

sinking, drowing
deeper, deeper... into cold,
sickening, madness.

nauseating haziness,
heart beating lowly, echoing...
echoing. lost.
in a sea of illness and disorientation.

Gravity has turned sideways and
upside down. A cylindrical
spinning. a whirlwing of
death. a discomforting
fear. i am. being. swallowed.
into a timeless, spaceless
void.

Death is seeping in.
my skin is numb.
choking, struggling, succombing.
into delirium. into blackness.
into nothingness.
screaming into vomit.
violent, prickling numbness.

Fear has her hands
grasped firmly around my neck.
Sanity, comfort, familiarity...
fleeing. rapidly. away from my
mind and body.

i am caving in.
i am collapsing.
i am alone.
in death. in fear. in struggle.
in terror.
petrified. ravaged. corpse of a
shell.

my conscience lies in decayed remnants...
of a lost child
crying for help
where the stars have all collapsed
into quivering nightmares.
