Emergency Emergence
Entombed alive, (albeit barely)..........Eased
Moisture drops drip from coffin lid...Mind melts
Escape seems implausible................Exhume me
Rigorously clawing.............................Raising the roof
Gasping, groping, grief.......................Ghastly gasses pass
Exit plan nixed.....................................Eyes focused on flicker
Now shouting......................................Nearer to light, (here in dark)
Code red..............................................Calming after my embalming
Yells.....................................................Enlightened, and no longer frightened
