I saw him walking the same road
Like creepers climbing the tall trees.
Feeling the sky getting closer,
Feeling the highly alluring breeze.
The same alluring breeze
Was playing the treacherous trick.
The scintillating aroma,
With layers so slick.
Along that superficial road
Were all the hypnotic eyes waiting.
Their sly vision never blurred,
As his android feet were moving.
His enervated body
Thirsty for a drop of the potion,
Just followed the wind.
Oh! That wonderful notion!
But little did he know
About this aspect of life.
Simulating a happy surprise,
Stabbing with a sharp knife.
Collecting all my might,
I screamed at him.
“Listen to me buddy!
Don’t submit to your whim”.
A voice from behind me,
Chuckled calmly in my ears.
“You know he can’t hear you.
Let him face his fears”.
I looked at my mouth zipped,
As the innocent died.
Once again we had won.
Once again a monster would rise!
Indeed, a masterclass and each word so perfectly placed, creating a sound that is so appealing in itself. Loved reading 🙂
