Fright or flght
Just last night I dreamed I was flying over a valley,
souring upstream, my beautiful wings stretched out before me,
free and powerful in a way I cannot be in waking hour,
suddenly I felt treachery surround,
though unseen this force I sensed all around,
panic grasped me as I tried to fly away,
my powers diminished to my dismay,
causing fractures in my concentration,
fighting the fear of levitation,
my body burning with adrenaline,
only to wake up in my bed again.
