The Essence of Nightmares

A fierce inferno
The entice of gunshots
Engulfed by your worst nightmare
Wake up! Wake up!

Submersion of you consciousness
In which we have no valid control.
Hallucinations flash and tear down common reminiscence
Wake up! Wake up!

Parlous or peace
Which will past the test of slumber?

This interesting poem depicts the terror of a nightmare quite well, Sarah.
