A BLACK FLASH

 

      A BLACK FLASH


the thought of not existing

          ever again

                 is

   a rare mental flash

   a flash that is gone 

         in an instant

     that lasts forever

   the blackest of black

  that you will never find 

               again

although its shadow stretches

through a skipped heart beat

  the vibration of quicksand

      the sinkhole of a pit

the long drop of the gallows

    the eternal question

  do i dare close my eyes

or should i never open them

           ever again 


but then the hormones kick in

  the feedback loops loop

 the neurones tell their lies

        and memory 

never what it once was

            forgets

 that thin-gamy thing
