Rockman Pritts Poet Dramatic Monologue

A Frightening Experience

I saw the light and I was afraid
I didn't want  to go to it
I wanted to turn and run
But I knew it would follow me

I felt as if I was in a tunnel
Nowhere to turn. Nowhere to hide
Moving to the light would be the end
Pain. Tragedy. Ensuing sorrow

But I knew I had no choice

I was compelled

Condemned, if you will

Sentenced to suffer the coming event

So I moved onward into my fate
And at the time of judgment
The official looked at my license and insurance
Then he said to me...

You're good to go

Have a good night

Rockman  :-)
