Cat and Mouse

Like lab rats I watch them run through My maze of horror
Opening this door and closing that one
Feverishly looking for any way out.
With every dead end I watch as their terror grows
Feeding into my growing Insanity
They crawl along blood stained floors
looking for an escape route that might lead them to freedom
Little do they now there is no way out of my house of horrors
They all will come to the same end

DEATH

I found this one by accident
He was so easy to lure to my lair
hmmm almost too easy in fact
I simply asked him to stop and have a drink with me
He is not a mouse by any means, just the opposite
He is bold and outspoken, though you wouldn't know it now
as he sits on the dirty floor groveling for me to let him go
He continues to go between begging me and being angry at me
Odd how people run the gamut of their emotions when faced with

DEATH

He did not enjoy the picture show I set out for him
I myself got a bit of a giggle from it
Oh well not every one enjoys a good gory picture show
He even cried as he watched my all to experienced hands
dismember the fellow that came to me before him
Oh now look at that he is up and on his way again,
Lets us see where he will end up now
He stops at a metal door, which seems to be locked
he pushes with all his might, I flip a switch and

CRASH

He cries out in pain, Almost yelling and howling, or should i say yowling
he has fallen into a pit filled with sharp syringes
He tries to pull the syringes out of his skin as fast as he can
which seems to only stick more into other places of his body as he moves about
Ouch oh dear that's not gonna be good for escaping
he just pushed the plunger on a syringe that i myself filled with a sleeping medicine
OH he's gonna be incapacitated for a bit once it kicks in
It takes a few minutes to hit him but sure enough
I can see him start to slump forward a bit

THUMP

I make a cup of tea while I wait for my newest lab rat to wake from his medicine induced sleep
I see gentle movement on my screen, AHH alas he is awake
Hopefully now my little game can begin again as I am growing bored quickly
I watch as he tries to collect himself, A look of horror comes across his face as he
realizes it wasn't a dream but a very sick and twisted real live nightmare
God how I never tire of that look,
Finally he has managed to lift himself out of the pit.
He begins pulling the rest of the needles out of his body
I can see he is still doped up as he tries to stand on very wobbly feet

CREEK

His head seems to spin 360 looking for the direction from which the noise came
He stumbles down the hallway only to see a small glimmer of light
He glances up at one of my many cameras with a smile
He can't really be this dimwitted, or maybe he can be
Still in a cloud he stumbles towards the light
He cautiously opens the door, making sure he wont fall into one of my traps again
Not so stupid after all
His smile fades as he realizes the light was only from a bright light above a metal table
He looks up at the cameras, crying again oh dear, Time for the real fun to begin

SLAM

I see him spin around just as the door slams shut
The look on his face is priceless
Like a deer caught in oncoming headlights
I move from behind my screen, with a bounce in my step i grab my bag of tricks
The door on the other side of the room swings open for me to greet my victim
He does not seem the least bit surprised to see me standing there
He is silenced he does not beg me nor does he yell like the others
Quietly he walks over and lays down on my table of torture
Though taken aback by this is I proceed to put on my apron on and lay out my tools

CLICK

He jumps at the restrains clicking over his wrists and ankles
Yet still he says nothing to me, Just continue to lay there watching me
It's not until he See's his fate does any movement or struggle come from him
I flip the switch on the table and the saw buzz's to life slowly moving into place between his legs
I smile as he starts to scream at me again
first begging me to stop this then yelling angrily, He struggles against the restraints
I open his shirt and make an X over his heart with honey, He looks confused now
His eyes widen as he sees the new tool in my hand, terror seems to fill his face
I slowly lower the handful of bugs onto his chest, step back and watch as they find their way to the honey
I smile sweetly as he watches while the first bug finds it mark and begins to gnaws its way through his skin

THA THUMP THA THUMP THA.......THUMP .........THA..............THUMP.................THA.......................THU....................
