Black Out by Cierra Hammond
sitting in a dark room with a white light that’s blinding bright as the northstar but don’t let the star fool you my own light stutters light and dark as mannequins stand around me not moving but when I blink they move and when I try to look they laugh close closer now you’re too close too close to me but oh well maybe they’re friendly Or maybe I’m too afraid the light that’s shining but slowly giving up still staring at the light in darkness mannequins are still here standing and laughing everytime I blink my eyes something’s not right i feel it getting darker every time I shut my eyes then I open them the light it’s moving away but, then I see the mannequin standing through my light smiling and laughing with tears in It’s eyes then all goes dark. everyone is wearing a mask except for you
