scary movies before bed are bad

I'm not poetic, I have no inner muse or creative inspiration besides an occasional desire to photograph my pets and doodle. But I woke up last night and my imagination was wreaking havoc w/ the freaky shadows on my wall (the movie i watched before bed probably didn't help) and as I lay trying to go back to sleep, I hear sirens in the distance. And this just came to me.....

Chased from dreams by creeping shadows
They linger in the corners of the mind and this room
Silence pierced
Though distant, still too close
A howl, a scream, a siren
A premonition?
The heart beats loud in the still dark, waiting

dreams, poetry
