Closing in

The jaws of a giant vise are looming,
The vise jaws business is booming
 
They're closing in on the trapped me,
Powerless to stop the ending I foresee
 
Problems loom like monsters in the fog,
Watch their relentless march with eyes agog
 
A Venus fly trap with me as the poor fly,
I know I won't get away, but still have to try
 
Troubles just waiting to feast on my brain
I'm a fresh painting left out in the rain
 
So the image dissolves into a pathetic mess,
I'm a desperate castaway signaling SOS,
 
I've spelled it wrong and the plane keeps going
And I'm left here while my worries keep growing
