Panic Attack Express
Encroached by bleakness barren thoughts derail,
lost zephyr junction-bound now frozen still,
whose screams for help are made to no avail,
as panic railroads bits where nightmares drill;
Safe harbors flee when tidal waves attack,
stirred quick from fossils steamed in hellish heat;
An anxious cabin falters off its track,
then leaps to scorched black coal with naked feet;
A locomotive chugging cellophane,
inhales as hostage held in hollow night;
In prior moments rolled civilian sane,
Until the devil came and fight took flight.
Unknown are reasons engines suffocate,
But cargo spilled produces heavy weight.
