Somewhere along the way
To the depths of the dirt
And the crumbling of clay
My soul became so full of hopeless dismay
As I lied in the darkness of my dungeoness grave
The ground began falling and tapping the top
The seems they were splitting and cracking the box
In blackness I’m trapped now my body shall rot
I’ve journeyed through thee earth
Or is this hell, because it’s hot
An explosion removed the once slab with a pop
And shot through the air now I’ve stopped!
Outside of my coffin I heard noises disturbing
Unnervingly words from my mouth began blurting
Excuse me was cordially strewn as the first thing
Then followed out loud I was burstfully cursing
At eyes from the wide shifting shadows those lurking
Slowly yet hurdling forward emerging
Converging around me as if they were circling
Conversing with language which sounded of gurgling
As quickly as I could arise rose a clatter
Of misfits whose fangs were as sharp those of daggers
No begging of such would excuse the disaster
Which I felt ensuing from that point and after
I stepped out of my coffin so cautiously standing
Nauseous my vomit spilled violently landing
Nine lantern lights burned while serpents turned candidly
And slithered on sand pebbles beneath my feet branding me
Shackled my ankles and wrist were restrained
Forcefully fists full of thick whips would maim
Shivering stabbing pains coursed through my veins
As sorcery so lacking remorse fell like rain
Now locked in a cellar so damp and oh dreary
Sadness now void all dried up there's no tearing
Lawless and low lying laughter grows nearing
Closer to fearing but so distant the clearing
Cracklings of crumbling ember glowed gleaming
Grumbling gremlins mumbled humbling words streaming
Suddenly from under those fumbling feelings
My flesh parted from bone matter and quickly began peeling
So this am I a shell of man
Condemned to dwell in hell I am!
