The Random Twist of Fate?

Anachronaeon


Somewhere in a not so distant future 

Storyteller: 
Six AM, he wipes the sleep from his eyes 
Jack is his name, always in shape, physique so strong 
Never or seldom he's sick, past 35, though not a wrinkle in sight 
Ex international correspondent, though not scarred of this world 

Jack: The forest seems calm, but I hear distant chirping 
No human in sight, just me and nature 

Futher into the greenery I run 
Further away from the rays of sun 
My pulse is raising with every step 
I feel so alive 

I feel that I'm not alone 
Was there a black van behind that stone? 
The sound of feet are following me 
but there's no one in sight 

Suddenly I hit the ground 
Silhouettes surrounding me 
A wet rag in my face 
brings me dreamless sleep 

I could never believe 
could never foresee 
this happening to me 

Just a piece in a game? 
Am I going insane? 
What do they want from me? 

I'm drifting away
