The cutis anserina raise cold upon your arm The brain dispatches a foretelling chilling alarm It is panic that has you in its grasp I daresay your destiny Though somewhat delayed come at last You focus your frightened gaze rapidly from left to right Wishing the sun break the dawn and begone this haunted night Your inner voice speaks to you Turn round if you dare The hair slowly rises on your neck The cautious self tells you to beware Ring covered fingers icy run up your spine Struggling to remain conscious Your heart is pounding Counting breaths you mark the time Drenched in sweat you stumble headlong into the dark Unaware an actor on the stage merely playing a part Flee as far as you wish and swiftly as you can There is no eluding the touch of fears hand It is panic that has you in its grasp The arms of fate Clutch you to her stone breast and hold you fast They call your name You must bow to the gods And breathe your last All Rights Reserved @ Tammy M.

It is panic that has you in its grasp
