Swirling colors before my eyes
Yellow and red lines flowing
In the white of my eyes
Images flash in a fiery blaze
Dancing heads spinning
Suspended in the brilliance
Heads fly off and run
Hitting the yellow sun
Right in the staring eyes
Tears well up at each corner
Get hit and disappear
Shiver in fear awaiting
Scathing lash of its burning rays
Cower in anxiety and panic strikes
Praying for a swift and painless end
Not a slow burning death
Screams ringing in my ears
