A Friend's Nightmare

Black, black night
Lightening flash
Thunder, thunder, flash
Scream in the night
Red rivulets
Rivers of mud
Red pools
Pools of blood
Bang on the window
“Daddy!”
Crash outside
Lights out
No phone
Stay put
Run
Maddening silence
Step and step
Voice calling
Maddening voice
"Baby, I need you!"
"No! No, Daddy no!”
No, daddy's dead
Hand on doorknob
Squeaky door
Rotten smell
Hands
Surround throat
Squeezing
Squeezing
Dead
Awake!
