I dream of tornadoes


I dream of tornadoes.

Tornadoes outside of my house
Tornadoes outside of my bedroom.
I'm always running.

I dream of destroying everything.

The fear crawls on my skin
prickles on my neck and in my chest.
Panic. Alarm.

It catches you.
It always catches you.

I dream I am the tornado.

The power scares me.
I don't know how to destroy everything.
It feels like burning a book you wrote,
or a masterpiece you painted.
You can't get it back.
It's absolute.
Ashes.

It will all be gone.

I will be gone.

I don't know how to die yet.
