Little light reflects from the walls,
Hands bound,
Screams come from below,
Whimpers drowned by laughter above,
Squinting to see a little light,
Twinkling and flickering,
Like a star at night,
Only one star shines here,
Larger and Larger,
Eyes eventually peer,
Numerous men and women stand,
Ropes tight around their necks,
Upon podiums dressed in gold,
Instruments stuck within starved necks,
Leeching minerals needed by kings,
Six on either side but one stands free,
Edging closer,
The Fates have decided for me.
