"Hallway"
A man stands starring down at the end of a hallway.
At the other end another man stares right back at him.
For one man the hallway is calm and teaming with bright lights,
for the other it is tenebrous and minatory.
The man in the light speaks soft words of peace and harmony,
while the man in darkness sputes feelings of abomination and abhorrence.
The man in the light conveys tales of unity and homogeneity,
while the man in the darkness replies with instances of discord and division.
The man in the light grows uneasy and asks why the other feels this way,
the man in the dark replies by asking him the same.
The man in the light takes a step down the hallway,
while the man in dark follows accordingly.
The two men walk slowly towards each other,
trying to persuade the other to his way of perceiving desperately.
By time they finish preaching they are only feet apart,
to which the pair realize the other will not be retreating.
The two men come face to face,
prepared to fight for the choices they call their own.
The duo raise their fists that come crashing into the each other
as their targets have found their home.
A crashing explosion and a thumping clud,
as the man falls to the ground that feels hard stone.
Shattered glass lines the hardwood canvas,
as the man exits a foggy twilight zone.
The man cautiously scans his surroundings,
until he realizes that the whole time,
he was in the hallway all alone.
