"Where am I? They've caught me! It cannot be! Not here!" whimpered an imprisoned reformer.


But he was in the place of panic,
A place that may well be Satanic
For in his chilling cube,

 

"... Can't move... can't stand...can't lay..." he unearthed

 

But the cube was chilling for many a reason
it assimilated with the season,
it would heat and cool with the days
concieving a ghastly place to stay

 

"What are they gonna.... gonna do?" came a mutter


Compel you to betray
and decay and stay
While contorted in your pallid place
you will vigil for the ending embrace

 

"Help......." he thought within his mind

 

Help heeds to those with a steely heart,
for the end may be really the start
But who doth desire that dead end route?

 

Only one who wishes martyrdom--
does accept this way-- you must not succumb
(You may only suffer, in dignity)

 

"I will not renounce me ways," said a sturdy voice


Then you are destined to be a martyr:
but be apprised, we do not barter
For only those who sacrifice
shall permeate, free of strife


"No more pain," he nearly begged

 

Ah, I hear the grim grappling noise;
Be aware, they've arrived for their prize

 

"Can't breath..." he came to realize


I detect you've determined their ways
an airless purse you shall be in
do not worry it is not all grim
for if you crave martyrdom, calmly stay


......................Hissss...................

I see another has swelled our ranks,
he suffocated in his tank
Drowned in an emptiness,
he did expand, then ghastly hiss

For in his vacuum, he did find
He lost his body, but retained his mind

And now we cross in martyrdom
consort with us in kingdom come

Interesting

This was an unusual poem, that hinted of a story that could also be written in a short story

This reminded me...

a little bit of Edgar Allan Poe's poetry. And I do admire his writings.

Unique style. I liked it! You managed to convey fear and sinister foreboding of things to come. Excellent choice of words. Great abstract writing.

Keep on writing!
