...................

eric pawned his soul
for some measly pieces of gold
the luster in his eyes went dim
a smile on his face was  never seen again

and he wonders....

you heard the sound?
its louder than his cry?
his splattered  blood far more visible
than the outreached hand
swashed body parts
definitely messier than his lost life
yet finally
at last
he succeeded
bang bang
two shots
he got what he so longed for
a second or two of your attention...

i was gypped by a monster
no, monsters
tortuous thoughts imprisoned me
the worst dungeon to evade from
wheres the door?
wheres the floor?
everything is but a limbo...
