A Nightmare
Two pisachas haunted me last night
Both short, one’s head dysfunctionally messed up
Like a burst peas sticking out of a pod
One eye hanging from raw nerves.
I was in my university hostel

They kept coming for me
They were omniscient
Never stopped coming for me, those demons
I ran from hostel to hostel.
Tall pisachinis also ran
Crossing my path
Their heads on fire.
