The Red Beast

No one but us,
I stand starring at the target afar


The possessed being

One foot off the ground


The red beast,

Twice tried once failed
The beast cackled at the sight of my attempt…
I leaped off the ground…
Thunder echoed the mid afternoon sky

A forever had passed…
The wheel caught on edge…
I lay on the ground,
My wrist in two

Devoured by my own failure, I faint

The beast roared its roar…

…He had won…


…And I had lost…
