Near-Death Elevator

 


Near-Death Elevator


By Craig Wilson


The smoke clears. I see I’m in an office building.

I don’t recall leaving the house. I shrug it off.

I find and enter an elevator. I press the 1F button.

The doors close. The machine whirs and plummets.

I scream. I bang against the wall. I barely survive.

The doors open. I leave the elevator; I feel sore.

People crowd around to help me; they examine me.

I can see how everyone is going to die; I panic.

Everywhere I go, I can see visions of death.

I run out of the building, and leave the dream.


The End


The above story is a loose adaptation of a dream I had. If there is anything you would like to ask, feel free to leave a comment, and thank you for reading.
