life is monstrous, savage and cold. My heart; a ticking time-bomb waiting to get old. Frantic whispers in my head "no time left, no time left " Time is an ambush predator, agile and adept. Lost in an abyss, only glimpses of far away stars, out of reach.                                                         UP into the vacuum I screech.                                                    Up                                              up Internal pressures build This panic is meaningless, soon, existence will be obsolete. I'll bunker down in a fortress of distraction, and pull the blanket over my head. I'll make a mansion of books, where fantasy filled delusions pacify my dread. I'll cling to Lifes' bared teeth as I'm shaken side to side. In time, time will release its predatory grip, let me live this life of mine.

The space-time continuum...
life is monstrous, savage and cold. My heart; a ticking time-bomb waiting to get old. Frantic whispers in my head "no time left, no time left " Time is an ambush predator, agile and adept. Lost in an abyss, only glimpses of far away stars, out of reach.                                                         UP into the vacuum I screech.                                                    Up                                              up Internal pressures build This panic is meaningless, soon, existence will be obsolete. I'll bunker down in a fortress of distraction, and pull the blanket over my head. I'll make a mansion of books, where fantasy filled delusions pacify my dread. I'll cling to Lifes' bared teeth as I'm shaken side to side. In time, time will release its predatory grip, let me live this life of mine.
The flow is pretty off, but, I just lobbed it together in a fleeting moment of inspiration.
