Project ERMA


2040
“How did a southside girl get mixed up in this shit”
She whispered
The sounds of discus patrolled the living station
As she accepted in full - the scope of her situation
Imprisoned for some kind of bio experiment
Wired to different techs. She sat silent imagining what was next.

“Erma, Dr. Staziak would like to see you now”

1976
Some would refer to it as wormhole
It burns through the fabric of space
Twisting and turning
Whistling whirling until a canvas was made
In a grandeur of flame
He stands unafraid, in a trance, he then said
“A passage of space, I’ve slammed on the brakes..
Of evolution!”
‘progressive movements? Its ludicrous, such nonsense they said’”
A man of the age deep in science and physics
His drive was instinctive at nine, Issac invented
A type of light that can emit a fiery green-lit, finely filtered filament
That can fire in distance of time and existence
In other word……

from the jump erma knew what was to come
Red and blue vials of liquid goo lodged to her lung
Every cough was a punch as volume of pain starts to rise
The strain in her eyes reflects the colored chambers in the sky
She was drained though the signs alluded to slightest consciousness
“She’s fighting” the doctor quipped while jotting prime prerogatives
“She’s a keeper. Could be what we need to make them believers
Of biotech enhancements it’s our chance, go release her

Erma woke to blurry sights as the room begin to adjust
Above, a surge of light swerved as nurses tend to her stuff
“Oh Ms Gonzalez, perfect youre up, breakfast is ready
Easy there. up and steady” as she sat up, “I’m gettin dizzy”
Why don’t you just rest up, Ms Gonzalez we’ll just be down the hall
Something was off. She felt lighter as if something. Was missing

“No, no this can’t be! NO!!!” Erma jolted in anguish
Greenish glow permeated the foiled containment
alone, the vacant quarter made it appear colder
Paint thinning, with faint ringing, she can hear soldiers
The sound of scientists rambling scramblings of rollers
Alluding to panic. Trying to stand, eyes scanning over
She observed dancing lights under the crack of the door
Light and shadows wrestling as more madness endures.
She wonder what was happening in the outside world.
