Black Out

by Amber B

The zap of life force fading away
crowded suffocation

(All I want is sleep...)

Sweet dreams as the darkness unfolds
Sweaty pleads for modern convienence

Open shut
open shut
open shut
open...
NO! SHUT!
No more wondering about that special little light

Prepared forever
hoping to never
have to cope

A flash of hope
a ray of electric sunshine
and we forget it all
go about our day
taking things once again
for granted

Playful little verse with biting wisdom in the last stanza. Great read!
