The Movie Theatre
The world, the
Movie I watch
I see before my
Eyes is too
Horrific to watch,
So in fear, I
Look away
And I am
Transported into
A room, no,
A world I've
Created with
My own hands
A world with
Movie screens
That surround me
With their arms
At four corners
The crystal raindrops
Nourish my body
And as I live
In a movie screen,
Slinging guns
And riding horses,
I try to obtain
The crystal raindrops,
Making it my
Daily goal to
Do so.
But before I
Could carry out
My plans, the
Four screens that
Surround me,
Suddenly choke me
With their loving
Arms,
And a man on
A horse, with a
Shotgun in his hand,
Breaks open the
Screen, and hits
A bullseye in
My heart,
And as I fall
Down,
Dying from the
Wound that has
Created a hole in
My heart,
I see the crystal
Raindrops once more,
Reaching out to
Them,
But it's in my
Bloodied hands that
They melt away,
Dissolving from their
Acidic wounds.
