I can’t tell you how it started
I can only tell you what happened
I can’t explain what I saw
As I merely witnessed the end
Jumping from time to time
I was at one point here, then there
I opened my eyes to a new light
And a landscape growing bare
As I walked throughout this land
The sun beat down on earthly faults
I looked up to see an endless world
Not here for causes, but for results
Glancing up into the distance
There materialized in black and white
A person walking towards me
Making me question my sight
As they walked listlessly closer
There came another from right behind
Again without a distinct hue
As I tried to make sense in my mind
Soon there appeared a dozen
All around me and moving in
As I stood on this barren land
I began to contemplate within
From where were they all coming?
And what purpose did they have for me?
Should I fear or open my arms?
Should I close my eyes or choose to see?
Before I could decide
Whether to run, or forestall
I was suddenly out of my own body
Safely distanced, watching it all
The colorless beings moved no further
But simply stood around me in my past
As I floated in my future, dismembered
I wondered why they had amassed
Confused at the ordeal
I left them for a taste of reality
As for what would happen next
Maybe tonight I’ll dream and see…
