Last i remeber i lay in bed
doctors surround me
shaking heads
clipboards reviewed
familiar eyes filled with
tears
then darkness
deep and comforting
sensations fading
experience fails
nothing takes hold
does not let go
my eyes open as
if they have never before
the world
view is blurry
in every way
where am i?
what has happened?
muscles contract
bones crack
i move without
a choice not to
my body lurches forward
i have no sense of the ground
or my feet touching it
my walk is cumbersome
i try to correct it
but have not the control
my body acts
compelled
by some force
unseen
i try to speak
still nothing
the words are trapped
in me
whatever form i am
and they echo there
i see from
what wereonce
MY eyes
others
people or souls
i am not
sure as to which
they wander as
my body does
Hell?
is this my fate?
do the damned
become confined
in their bodies
to roam eternally
trapped in evil thoughts
Then there are
more still
they run
mouths agape
to me
soundless
screaming faces
are some punished
more harshly?
The others seem to pursuit
These silent screamers
as does my shell
my former temple
lumbering ever closer
i see one fall
and struggle to
regain feet
i approach
surrounded by
the other damned roamers
we descend
my world seems
to vibrate
my body lunges
my former hand grabs
at any thing it can
i only watch and try to resist
alas there is
no resistance
I watch as my proxy
rips flesh
blood flows
i feel nothing
no bloody warmth
no tactile sensations
what once was me
destroys
ravages
murders
then as my empty screams
echo to haunt only me
i eat
flesh and blood
without taste
without reason
surrounded by red
the vibrations calm
i am left in my hell
limping and lumbering
once more
onward
