At the age of 27, I am still afraid of the dark.

::: The Ephebe :::

Fight of Flight? I’ll take a shot of both please.
Choosing between the two is for the functioning members of society,
Not the jobless wonders caught in a Blakean rapture,
Watching angels dangling from the buildings on Montgomery Street.

Fight or Flight? That alliteration everyone feels and understands;
Unlike, the Knight in Green which leads a wanderer to wonder.

Let us observe the process:
The brain locks up and walks its tight rope between the two choices.
Fight—the body tingles with anticipation of the knockout and the blood,
The empty space where the teeth used to be.
Flight—a path to empty comfort, gained by lack of attention to emotion.

I’ll take a shot of both.
