The hopelessness and despondency
is locked away inside of thee
the pessimism and despair
of knowingly just standing there
the unpropitious the inauspicious
timing as your led along
through dark chambers
and evil hallways
where the blood
now does belong
its runs through gutters
into Hell
beyond the grace of angels who
are those sad and admonished earthlings
who now wait
one may be YOU
one last look upon the light
that occupied your day a while
one last breath of cool sweet air
prescribed alas soon to defile
drawing deep into my being
life with all its wonders here
I hear the rusty dragging chains
coming for me they appear
with trepidation, for I am not ready
I can never be ready
for what now will
happen hung upside down a bleeding
drowning in terror that now does spill
my blood of ages all the pages
and the wages of sin are mine
so carnivores can cut and eat me
and my maggots then entwine
around their guts to then consume them
in your colon they will be
vanquished in a sea of jelly
which is where the dead and dying see
