Nightmare? Poem by Goddy Nana Mens

Nightmare?



I awoke with a start
A terrible pounding in my heart
My face was wet with perspiration
Streaking slickly slowly down my chin
I felt hot
Or maybe not?
Verily I felt hot
Yet the cause I knew not
My veins stood erect on me
Pulsing with dark dark energy
I stood and moved to the window
I didn't walk - I flew though
And I saw them
The unholy, the entities condemned
Cause of the world's woes
The havoc, pain and lost souls
Elves and goblins and dwarfs and witches
And owls and crows and spiders and midgets
How they shivered in my presence!
Bounded in my dark effervescence
I stepped into the night
Into the sky void of light
Into this dark unholy hour
My being laden with pure power
And I stood over them, glaring
As tall and proud as the tower of London
And they huddled at my feet, cowering
Like a once glorious gladiator, beaten and fallen
Awaiting judgement, hearts in throats
Shuddering, quivering in their tear-soaked cloaks
And I raised my hand
Now powered like a wand
Bolts streaming down my arm
Itching bad to do harm
My hand came down with a scream
Hard fist crashing into cloak
But alas! I awoke
And it was all but a dream!
