Crazy Town

Nightmare “X”
 
a man called Vivid came to visit
through the dark eyes of a killer

people from here to there

my teeth were falling out
and I was spitting blood 
like a fire hose

I was forced to smile 
to prove my dementia

While crawling on the ground 
I picked up my teeth from the 
tile floor and put them in my 
front pocket

Vivid took me to the carnival

On the way he started 
bitching at me 
for not watching the 
“Christmas Story” marathon

I see the roller coaster…

Let me out before my 
mind explodes!

Vivid began hitting me in the mouth 
with a steel pipe

It was a bad trip
but a trip none the less

just another day in crazy town…

Wonder by your title if this was about a nightmare. Been having some dark crazy ones myself. Pretty creepy stuff here. Love, Shar
