The hatchet starts it all. Burrowing into the lower depths. Spaces so small. The layout underestimates, deceives us. A need for freedom. Attempts to resist are futile, outrageous Then the sewers. Murky, rancid and foul is the stench. Senses dulling, aromas piercing like skewers Don’t stop now. Elbows, shoulders, calves are tense, Faintly hearing the moo of a cow. Just a little more Finally the light beckons…….all hope is lost The final barrage of bullets shake to the core.

No Redemption Here
The hatchet starts it all. Burrowing into the lower depths. Spaces so small. The layout underestimates, deceives us. A need for freedom. Attempts to resist are futile, outrageous Then the sewers. Murky, rancid and foul is the stench. Senses dulling, aromas piercing like skewers Don’t stop now. Elbows, shoulders, calves are tense, Faintly hearing the moo of a cow. Just a little more Finally the light beckons…….all hope is lost The final barrage of bullets shake to the core.
