Victim Number Thirty Two

I awaken, cold and groggy Not sure if I'm dreaming It's dark, feel something in my mouth Words won't form, I cannot speak Just muffled grunts Wait, I'm gagged, blindfolded Can feel feet and hands tied I hear feet shuffling towards me I smell the stale smell of unwashed clothes The heavy odor of tobacco fills my nostrils. No words are spoken But then I hear steel on steel of A knife on a sharpener It stops . The feet shuffle closer but at a slower pace Like time spent here was important to this monster. The beast grabs my hair and tilts my head back. Heart is racing , body quaking I feel cold steel again my throat And the last sound I hear, "your next." FOR JERRYS CREEP ME OUT CONTEST

Wow, my heart paced as if I was the victim. I appreciate this poem. Sometimes I want to read twisted poems, of the writer describing a moment so sterile, he/she's not going nowhere after they realize it's their final moment. I'm going to read this one again, only because terror and a creepy voice saying" your next" fit my needing of wanting a dark and twisted end. Lol.... Love Linda (this gives me a great idea)
