(Published in One Thousand Questions And No Good Answers)
Trapped in limbo
Floating in dead space
Time no longer travels
Only tangible and tasteless.
Invisible cage of cold suspense
Claw marks in gelatin fabric.
Barefoot and defenseless
Reeling in and out of dreams.
Master of Silence
Magician of Duality.
My heart
Beats
Slowly.
Lift these heavy chains.
Ripping the plastic
Breaking out of limbo.
I’m alive and breathless
Floating free in the endless dark.
Sarah Herrin Poetry
