Panic destroys quietly

Paralyzed with fear

A half century's embrace

As anxiety feverishly kills...

Its crimson death

is thrown into

the Eternal fires of

bloodthirsty demons, and

abuse...guile...betrayal,

Are they not just words?

Or a twisted state of mind

as savage delusions

imbedded within

this diseased mind of gifted sanity -

Where hope has been eradicated

by the invisible pain,

when will death release me

from this antiquated suffrage?

Yet, from out of the ashes, rises

a tiny glimmer of hope

as the curative drugs

flow soothingly through

the hallowed path of sacred veins,

as the panic is driven away.
