Panic Attacks Are Fun! - Ayad Gharbawi

PANIC ATTACKS ARE FUN!

 

 

Ayad Gharbawi

 

 

A waterless feast for the thirsty

Torturers

Struggling to restrain their base Infamy

Hungry ravenous ******* eyes

Smiling grotesquely

At their Prey

Wingless birds

The nightmare is still swirling in its

Intensity

Variations of horror

And perpetual stalking fear

Shaking eyeballs

Blurring visions

Colours far too strong

Piercing

Sweating inside

Palpitating heart

Driest mouth

Piercing

Beyond any reason

Pointlessly running

From the excessively, maniacal seething Fear

Never ending

The deformed visions deepen

Yet disconnecting themselves

From my shaking Self

Withering my ‘I’

I see a threatening ugliness staring at me

I know

I am victimized

How can I get out of this?

Filthy stench of a greasy pit!

Where are the maps?

The guidelines?

Where are the physicians?

Promoting this vicious

Civilization

That I do swear

Is even sicker than I am

For you have left us all

Stranded

Surrounded

In a surreally insane No Man’s Land
