Flight or Fight

Sympathetic adrenaline 
the human response
the embrace hug or flee

Deep breath in now
throw yourself on the pyre
burn for all eternity
hold nothing back

think accuse and ascribe
you came this road
for none yet all to see
and now what is done
is done to all, for all [time]

by your hand you let it flee [words deeds, actions, arrows]
your heart on fire
you thoughts awash

pursued for deeds
you did not do
Although perhaps
some of it true

run, run, flee and hide
but always run 
close off inside
now fear that 
for me life will be, in,
shadows
