In The Night

Epileptic seizure of the earth.

The darkness hides its secrets,
but magnifies our terror.

Like a silent witness crouching in the darkness,
it catches us by surprise.

Hypnotised by fear.
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.
Convinced mother earth was calling our number.
Time forever frozen in our cities ticking tower.
A collective picture montage imprinted in my mind.
Walls dancing, roads buckling.
The dooms day roar of life as we know it changing.
Standing helplessly beneath the framed entrance.
Forced against my will to watch fear etched on the faces of my loved ones.

The heartless matriarch of nature has unleashed her caustic fury.

Then Silence.

Bio: I've always loved to write. As a child while others were writing a couple of pages for their stories, I would fill almost an entire exercise book with one of mine. I've mostly focused on poetry over the years, but I'm presently working on a fiction book. I've written the odd short story and have a passion for non fiction oral histories. I plan to be published one day and am working towards that goal.
