Past (1990)
I am tied to a chair in the
middle of a wooden room.
An abyss engulfs the wall behind me
I have no legs to run
I have arms frozen with fear, ignoring my commands to be free and safe.
I feel a presence in that abyss.
Waiting and stalking.
Licking its lips in hungry delight.
I have spent many hours sitting in this shoe box of a room.
Slowly I feel my mind deteriorating into senseless garble.
I can stand no longer!
I MUST look at this terrifying foe.
Hair on end, each vertebrate clicking as I swerve my head backwards.
My foe rushes eagerly to the light.
I scream and fall back into a black bed of unconsciousness.
My foe is a stooped over creature with green bubbly skin, iridescent blue eyes and black garb.
My foe inches back into the abyss.
The past hides for a time but will return to the light with more of a monstrous appetite.
Only if I shall look to the past again.
