Peripheral Sight
Wailing winds rattle windowpanes,
with sounds of moans and clanking chains.
Your whole world begins to shudder
and your heart soon starts to flutter,
as a violent vibration:
shakes your house to its foundation.
Caught in your peripheral sight
a tornado's twisting the night:
and debris swirling in the dark
as the twister carves out its mark.
And gazing at the face of Death:
you gasp for air, struggling for breath.
