Reliving
a sinister reminder
of tortures of the past
is causing me to flounder
in deep shadows cast
been through this before
thought it had been conquered
never again to abhor
nor have to be endured
who threw the flag?
why this penalty?
team's beginning to lag
really need a safety
this disturbing puzzle
won't release my mind
from the dangerous hell
I thought I'd left behind
