A Drop in the Cavern
Great debris of unimaginable
Scales of hubris tall in size
Hidden ‘neath a sole demise
Late in life to come perusal
Of a minuscule far human
Far in reach o’ destination
Hidden ‘neath another nation
Sniff of prison under rocks
He could not envision then
When the sights for him producd
In a wonders’ moment mused
See beneath the situation
Of a planning in this wreckage
Simple fate to blow in airs
And careening to grim lairs
Laugh of ruin cold precise
The unfortunate survivor
Breathing calmly moments prior
Prior unsuspicious horror
Flee of tourism blown away
Contemplating dreadful options
Coldest came reality
All of concepts he could see
Reaching present fate’s delivery
Of a weighty monument
Of a stern and endless pressure
Lodged in darkness deepest fissure
Half of solid half o’ terror
The afflicted shaken visitor
Hand entrapped and other hearted
Far inside accommodated
Heartly holding every beat
Of a critter man of hour
Grim untimely situation
A transpiring pale vexation
If another second passing
Of unbearable the madness
Piercing sprawling chilling web
Of sensations ‘bout my deathbed
Off my trembling peace is out!
My perdition absolute
Clawing skin my situation
Of late hope the renegation
Why is tighter stone not loose!
Stubborn will not wrench away
Limb so tired of dismay
There is simply not a way
Form or artifice salvation!
For my gifted crisp of exit
I see nothing I can’t sleep
For too drenched my eyes in weep
War of soul and heart of me!
In pull for my mental sway
I’ll decision missing promptly
Neverending state so somberly
Dim this tribulation hard!
Twilight covers my awareness!
And tomorrow comes the hunger
Lest I break free to no longer
Fight with me and urges mine!
To evade the rising moon
Breaking free nice easy soon
Surely pick o’ mine has room
Do a tearing and it’s fine!
Piercing flesh cannot hurt more
Than the patiently anxiety
Rasping rhythmically sobriety
Crushing vile my tolerance
Just a target swing fortuitous
But repeated for good measure
Maybe is some kind of pleasure…
But is freedom from demise!
Oh my stars what is I’m saying
In this moment fit for ponder
Truly answer is oh closer
Show yourself to me right now!
Cleanly I’ll concoct escape
An ingenious solution
Final rigid resolution
Sunny day won’t show itself!
Yanking jerking give up rock
Hardy are my deepest bones
Harder even is my brains
Sunking failure yours await!
Now was that a little quiver?
From some pebbles dislocating?
Humble avenue creating?
Foul of you to fool me so!
I will crack your very structure!
After leaving this your hellhome!
Strip you of your strength and name!
Try and stop the loud revenge
You hide back your callous threats
Of a bigger bro collapsing
While I stay you won’t be lapsing
Two or three fat boulders, will you?
The protesting person stuck
Heard a noise then heard a rumble
Thinking geologic tumble
Knee of water sweat in place
Yet it’s silence that due followed
All the same afraiding him
Drops and shiver toes to chin
Wet and flexible morale
Then to flourish freely fist
Man would have no thing of it
Pillar had throat he would slit
Man would break all opposition
Valiantly he dared to squirm
Motions showed rock who is boss
Though no gain made and no loss
Sadly so he melted whole
“What is it, is it you want?”
He inquired recomposing
With a firmer spine erecting
“Cannot leave it to tomorrow?
Satisfaction of your whims?
An affliction of my sorrow?
Is my time you wish to borrow?
Fraction of respect you have!”
Till a vigorous swing punishment
Laid on stony nerve above
Bit more bluntly than he’d have
Threw a rupture into motion
Open veins up germinating
Growing empty tree of wreckage
Filling him with fear and rage
Harden spirit boy he tried to
Automatic a destruction
Rock to crumble rock to rock
Ending sticking in a stack
Problematic shards chaotic
Though when dust was dissipating
And the lucky still alive
Art he managed to contrive
Lo it was configuration
His claw battered in a pocket
Hurt and free amidst the rocks
Not the last of all his shocks
This but promptly took away
Reeling straining just to fathom
All the lotteries he’d lost
Though this one was sole and best
Feeling he should buy more tickets
To his clearly fruitful fortune
Path of entrance still remaining
Took his self plus pickaxe running
True and ready for hotel
Striding through the beach of plastic
Distant desperation’s grotto
Vision slowly far and hollow
Being not like its insides
He so quickly entered hall
Climbing stairs his door to greet him
Slithered in by gap so slim
Scary dance of under sheets
He so furrowed and remaining
For a heart and hand start healing
Shower could come later filling
The vacation’s legend his
