He lures you down a misty route Beckoning with a skeletal finger. Wearing a long trenchcoat, He tells you not to linger. Obediently you step forth Following in the shadow. Shamelessly – of course As the path begins to narrow. You squeeze on through Trying not to lose sight As he fades from view; Away, into the night. Now you’re all alone, In the darkness breeze. The silence drones, The walls begin to squeeze. You struggle and strain, As they compress your chest But all in vain, You did your best. The silence is drowned By a searing cackle. He has you now- Broken and shackled
