Knock, Knock, Knock

Knock, knock, knock...

Like the pounding of my heart, only not...

A sound like an eternal hammer, raging into my ears

Tap, tap, tap...

That small beating, a scared mouse mayhap

No, finger nails against the floor, echoing off the walls

Clang, clang, clang...

Chains, pulling me down, driving me insane...

Highhills, making their way up a deserted hall

Scratch, scratch, scratch...

Small claws digging into my brain, loosening a latch

My nails, my claws, slicing down my cheeks...pretty color

Knock, knock, knock...

Trying to get out, pawing at the door, no escape...



Sounds of entering and madness, despair and sadness

The wicked and the vile, mixed with vegetables and docile

Shocks, shocks, shocks...

Electric heavens in the mind



Be still...Be still...Be still...
