Bottomless Pit

Hurled at the speed of light
Into a black hole
Into the fierce vaccum
Tumbling, twirling, twisting
Falling for a thousand years
With an unchained melody
Until the Reign ends
Then apprehended suddenly
Jerked up at that same speed
By that chain- feet first
With that same unbroken 
Primal scream
In fearsome terror
Surrounded by darkness
Dense enough to feel
More horrific than his own
