Black Out

i hear you deep within me 
 sirens of sound drowning engine 
 turbine whistle pierce the drum 
 welcome have a seat he will be with you 
 in a bit, he will see you now . 
 the hall is long and dark  
 seems like i have walked this before  
 pause an look at the pictures on the wall 
 and they say nothing at all 
 where have you been ?  
 it has been such a long time  
 you must tell me how you been 
 no time for that now enter here 
 the room is sterilized and you in white  
 standing there looking at me saying  
 "i do" not now i have no time you 
 start the engine and drive off dust clouds 
 whip and bend 
 i hear you calling me ,"wake up " 
 you have been in an accident are you ok ? 
 mind beat up and sober back to where i was

An interesting and creative presentation of what seems to be an awakening after an accident following an emotional trauma....I enjoyed reading this.
