Do not

Do not scream do not make a sound

Or they will find you and the hounds will track you down

The clown in my dreams whispers to me, "it'll all be over soon"

The longer you stay here in your sleep the less you'll have to move

The flowers died somewhere long ago

Do not give them your pity

The rain washed their corpses away yesterday, when the hands on the clock struck noon

Do not breathe too much or you will explode

Like an over-inflated balloon 

The puddles in the parking lot sing, not words just noise

Ringing in your ears

And it looks like they formed a shape expressing all of your fears

Do not run from the sound of their laughter 

Things far away seem may seem near

Do not look me in the eyes, or you'll see your shadowed reflection 

Laughing in the mirror
