These electric dreams,
confusing and thick
scrambling my thoughts,
a magnetic lightning stick

Frying, sizzling, power shock
What is this random blistering code
frying my brains circuitry
zap! – Human debugging mode

shocking my body,
mind spinning underground
wired to this terminal
listen, that static sound.

Nearly plugged in,
No! Keep that socket away
The sparks are getting closer
I don’t want to die this way.

Terminal electric dreams
even strike me in the wake.
Disorderly charged digits,
Another Electrophobic quake

Power spikes impale me,
An energy flux leaks
through my heart and veins.
Gasping, my final fatal shrieks

Stop! Help me!
Wake up! Ascend!
If this nightmare continues
I will never sleep again.

My eyes open,
I realize,

Relief!

It was just that dream,
so real,

my electric night thief.
