Death, I think not

The trenches are beginning to take shape, its now or never, are we going to fight or is death humanitys faith?
I cannot comprehend what I've seen in my dreams, a twenty first century alien invasion with one goal, to exterminate our souls.
It begins with missing men, workers with there tools not ringing in, finally found in a field digging themselves to death, there eyes, lifeless.
Its foggy, unclear, I'm shrouded in fear
Industries closing down, power cables ripped from the ground, the economy cracks and bleeds falling from our hands it seems so surreal I choose not to believe
I'm wading through broken glass
I'm not going to accept the vision's I have kept, the chaotic scenes, the children's screams as there mothers and fathers lie dead in the earth.
I wake up from this nightmare and go to work
Work, were I forget about my wandering mind but as I pass by and stare into the sky, I look down to see workers digging the ground, there eyes, lifeless.
The blood drains from my face, did I wake up? Is this real? Yes, I am about to die, my daughter, she is all that runs through my mind
I love you grace, please take me from this place
Frantically I look around for some angel, some god willing to help or a soldier, with a gun.
No
I can feel the aliens skin and taste its breath, a quick death I beg of it, its spear penetrates my soul and darkness falls. Darkness, but no death....

A spine tingling nightmare poem. You describe vividly and suspenseful. Extraordinary scenes, dark poetry wow. Thumbs up.
I'm quite a newbie here, but have been writing and interacting for ages. Pleez write your thoughts/comment on my newest poem, titled , "jumbo jet vs jays" too.
I like to know different conclusions and say hi to poets thereby in this cold world.
The nightmares, so well written one could almost feel your fear. Dreams/nightmares some other life who knows? So scary
and sometimes we dream the same thing over and over which
is even more scary - waking up in the night afraid of going back
to sleep.
Thank you Anne, thank god my dreams aren't real. Thanks for reading and commenting on.
