The Outer Limits

Dreamed 1988/3/13 by Marianne A., as told to Wayan

I was trapped in The Outer Limits,
half sci-fi, half horror. It's fingered

my personal dread: a man harangues
"You think you're not important, but

you're WRONG!" I cannot bear to face
my own worth; I wrench away compelled

to leap in the river and drown. But dream-
cunning erects a storm fence, walling off

my death, the rivercliff. And so I'm forced
to face my horror: to live as if I matter.
