Something Strange
Something strange is going on,
I'm feeling in my dreams.
Something strange is going on.
What ever could it be?
I felt the sharp blade of a sword
Coming down on me.
I felt the chill of Arctic ice.
What could the problem be?
Something odd is going on,
Dull the pain may be.
Something odd is going on.
What is wrong with me?!

I was inspired to write this poem because of some dreams I was having. Usually, I don't have dreams where my "touch" sense works, but these were different. I literally felt a japanese sword cutting into my shoulder in one of them, and even though it felt like a paper cut, it was terrifying. In the other dream, I was climbing down a glacier and felt the cold ice, but that wasn't nearly as scary as the sword. So, yeah. That's how this poem was born.
I chose the image because I thought it looked cool.
