the man you knew is tied up and gagged
in a forgotten corner deep in the
cement basement
of an abandoned home rigged with
explosives.
so long as his heart beats, it is yours
to break
but this reflection of mine is almost
out of time
the silence is filled with the ticking
of a clock
if you act now, you may save him, or
doom him,
whichever fate you wish for your toy,
but you must choose, and quick,
before his splattered corpse paints the
rubble.
-Zero
