I advanced one more step,

and without warning ,

I was sucked in

with the strength

of a vacuum hose,

and I heard what sounded

like a rabbit

looking for someone

named Alice. I couldn’t see

a thing as I was spinning

out of control

at warp speed

down a black hole.

I heard the alternate

tick tock

of an annoying,

blaring clock

as I continued

to tumble and spin

down the hole which apparently

had no end.

It was quick and painless.

I never felt a thing.

It was like floating inside

an hourglass

with nothing but time.
