The winds gusted blowing that
Dam branch upon my window,
"Tap, "Tap, ".....Help,
I with hesitant breath move the
Drape, and see nothing but arched
Twigs teasing my window pain.
With relief I walk to the top of the
stairs, Hearing a knock on the door
"Tap, "Tap, "......Help me,
I cling to the wall rising upon the spy
Hole to find only pitch darkness and
My heart relaxes its grip upon my throat.
I step upon the porch, unseen wire flaring
In the wind, like a viper encircling my throat.
I momentarily clasp the door and tap.
"Help me,
I'm picked up like a doll as the wire entailed
Upon the tree thrashes me around, higher
it pulls. And a window I tap with gasping breath.
"Help........,
I know what happens as I lapse in to
unconsciousness, was it my imagination
Or did the drape move an obscured face.
"I was my own witness to my single moment,
I swing like a leave in the wind, hanging silent.
I am the last leaf to fall, cold and dead.
