Faster-- A drum Weeping Throbbing Exploding Faster-- A blur of colors A thick Dense fog Faster The world’s lights fade away Faster But not the voice Faster They damage the white canvas FASTER Ripping tearing shredding Faster Last breath escapes Faster The world is gone Faster Faster Slower A flow of air ignites the flame Slower The dark clock gives way Slower Think fog blown away Slower As the drum beats strong and steady Life gave meaning I never want to go that fast again
