Redemption before the dawn

I am the man in the corner, I am the man who walks in the shadows, I am the man who has no face, I am the mystery man.


I take one step toward the bridge
, I have been here before, or so it seems.
I look around noticing every detail, every aspect of this bridge. I see the wood pecker, pecking at a tree, I notice the cat hiding behind the tall grass, waiting for the wood pecker, I notice the T-Rex hiding behind the cat, waiting to eat the cat, it seems to be an ordinary day, but is it?
No, it's not an ordinary day, it's far from ordinary. I keep walking into the shadows of the trees, this is where I work best, even though it is broad daylight I feel as if no one can see me, I smile at the kid pointing and laughing at me, his time will come, yes... His time wil.. I was interrupted by the sound of the man I was looking for his name is Isaac, he's four foot five, dark brown hair, it comes to his thighs, Hippie... I sneak behind the grass, the young boy who pointed at me previously yells out "Creeper!!" I am now visible to all, I quickly make a run for it, and climb up a tree only to realize that it was not a tree but a very tall man, he is very sturdy for his height... Able to hold me up without moving an inch.. I am off subject, forgive me.. I climb down this incredibly tall creature, and being more visible than ever, I quickly close my eyes, ah yes.. I am now invisible, I was taught a long time ago, if I cannot see them, they cannot se... I am repeatedly punched in the face, keeping my eyes closed going into a fetal position trusting that it will all end soon. It did not end, I wake up at Saint Jake's hospital and diner. Why does this hospital have a diner in it? And why would anyone name a hospital Saint Jake's? Is Jake even a saint? I wish I knew the answers to these questions that haunt me.

The nurse walks into my room, it's her.. I've seen her before! The nurse says who? Who have you seen before? I just realized I spoke out loud, I rise out of my bed, she knocks me back down, she isn't a nurse at all.. She replies "No I'm not a nurse." I need to learn to think instead of speak... I then remember her name, it's Myscaela. (And yes if you're thinking "Is that a Japanese name?" You're right on cue, although she was not Japanese, she could have fooled me, with the way she squinted at me.) I ask her... Could you get me a glass of tea, trying to get rid of her so I can make my escape, she replies no, I thought that was bullet proof, but she will not leave. She opens the brief case, if I told you what was inside this brief case I would have to kill you.. rotflol jk.
But seriously.. It was deep stuff, she pulls out a picture of Sanisha. I scream, why can I not get her out of my life!!! Myscaela pulls out a gun, and asks me where she is, I cry and say I don't know, just as Sanisha walks in, with that smug look on her face like she just won the below average softball game, in case you're wondering, Sanisha played in a league called the Gold diggers an under achieving softball team. Sanisha walks in and they stare at each other. And if you're wondering Sanisha is black. They stare at each other, and Myscaela points the gun at her, puts the gun on the trigger, and..
