no way out

Not a poem

I hurt;

like a Frankenstein monster.

Iron fist
Unrelenting
Squeezing my heart

The campaign has begun
the villagers gather as I speak
it's only a matter of moments now
they are coming
nowhere to run or hide
heart pounding
panic
taste of blood and rust in my throat

i must make my peace

certainly not with them
it is too late for that
but with my maker

the Frankenstein monster cries;
"Who are you that has made me thus ?"

to the villagers
I am but but rags and bone;
without heart or soul.
it's easier that way,
for what must be done.

no way out

they are here
they are closing in

it is done
