POEM STARTER
Compose a poem about false awakenings.
A false awakening is when you wake up within your own dream. Those who experience false awakenings do not realise they’ve woken up inside another dream.
Man In The Hallway
My heart does thump
my skin does burn
When the shadow of a man stands
his presence adjourned
1 second he’s there
10 minutes he’s not
On the nights that the air
is stagnant and hot
Bending ‘round corners
lurking in hallways
These dreams of mine
They’re just a phase
A hint of a attention
I shouldn’t pay
To the being that haunts me before every day
