CLIMBED UP AHEAD

the chasm opened up
the hot fire from deep beneath
roared loud and high
it spewed out a large rock
that violently struck my head
it made me lose consciousness
I was in a coma
for countless moments
a nightmarish world
emerged around my still body
dirty, muddy feet
stepped all over my back
the instant I tried to get up
I felt their heavy weight
I tried to push myself up
but they pushed me back down
I crawled out of their way
found myself clinging to a cliff
that I could climb
but in fear, I just clung
as people flew by me
and climbed up ahead
until I got tired
