End of the line

A Poem by Paper Doll
"

dunno what to say, it was a weird time for me

"
Dangling here from this nylon
My feet swinging above the chair I had to climb on
There's a roaring in my ears
it feels like there's blood in my tears
I swear there's an ocean in my head
it's waves pounding on the shores of my brain
my body seems like lead
and I try to refrain
from thinking about what I was told as a kid
about Hell and mortal sins
so from God's eye I feel hid
all I can see is the way the devil grins
as the darkness covers my vision

I'm wrenched through this sudden transition
I think my lungs are filled with fire
I'm thrown sideways to the squeal of a tire
the blare of sirens washes over me
voices pecking at me like vultures
my limbs so stiff they feel like sculptures
my vision comes back
like a whip's crack
white and metal
and the faces of nervous people
I beheld the Rod of Asclepius
and am filled with wariness
I didn't think an ambulance would take me to Hell.
