The Menace
The walls shrink
For size of me
Eye split wide
To view sights
Absurd, obscene
Interposed with death
The menace mingles
Captures all breath
I suppose to only
Crush me beneath
Razor white teeth
Hush me to sleep
As I silently bleed.
For size of me
Eye split wide
To view sights
Absurd, obscene
Interposed with death
The menace mingles
Captures all breath
I suppose to only
Crush me beneath
Razor white teeth
Hush me to sleep
As I silently bleed.

I feel claustrophobic when I read this, as if I can feel the walls close in on me,:) anonshadow. At least I feel that in the poem. Very descriptive.

That's a good way to look at it, the walls are issues of trust and bad luck. Thanks for reading! ~anonshadow

It's very real, it's the terror of mistrust along with other things. Thanks for the read. ~anonshadow
