THE SUITS
December 20, 2018
In the depths of darkness
Me, my sister, dad, and mom
Were on our way sneaking out
In broad daylight
The earth quiet, sounds of insects and birds, chirping
We tippied under the caved in bridge
Near the abandoned and misplaced tracks
An eerily feeling washing over us
The suits. We saw the suits handling their tar colored steel
Immediately forcing us to, “GET DOWN!” and “DON’T MOVE!”
I stood there doe eyed viewing what was occurring in the moment
Hearing their throaty voice rasp out command
My dad and sister knelt with steel beside their heads
Taking in a deep breath, closing my eyes as tears trickle down my cheek
Hearing a ‘click-clack’ sound my voice shutters
BOOM!’’ My eyes open in panic looking around in all familiarity.

This poem is about an occuring dream that involves trying to stay alive. i chose to write about this because dreams can signify your daily thought and actions, what you and do. it like when you go to sleep and your brain picks a movie to play out of the cabnet of your day. This poem could include my thought on police brutality, the end of the world, and the worst case scenario, death.
