into consciousness...
eyes dialated and fixed,
all senses on the alert,
heart beats rhythms steadily
hairs on the arms raised,
tasting the environment
as it filters through the nose;
alert and standing ready
muscles tense but loose
nerves on edge but controlled
the mind searches endlessly...
desperate demons delay their
approach while the night
reconsiders its own shadows
whose presence in the darkness
is rather deceiving at best;
glowing embers reflected
in the eyes provide light...
the evil slides around our
emotions and in our forgiveness
allows the sins of our fathers
to catch up with all of us...
secrets squirm their way
through our pores like sweat
and our manifested truths
appear alone at dawn once the
killing of the souls has been
postponed once again tonight.
