Breakdown

There’s a red light
You follow it

It’s coming out of a window.


You look through it
You think you can see a face,
You squint your eyes at it
You see a vague shadow
You’re almost convinced
Then you back away a little to get a clearer view
Nothing’s there.


The cards are all suspended in mid-air,
You reach out
They all fall down to the ground
You try to pick them up
You disappear.
It’s all black.


There’s a red light…
You stay put.
