Kafkaesque

Now stand still and take the oath
define your choices by their trace
as this is the one and final case.
Fears are melting with confusion
a Kafkaesque pursuit for redemption
finding the end will be the exception.
''Guilty as charged''! Voices crawl
a door is thumped and people brawl
a Kafkaesque sharing of fortunes.
Lost consciences are passing the gates
where flaming light still awaits
to divide the Kafkaesque instincts of freedom.

A word associated with or relating to Franz Kafka or his writings. It's certainly the most stand out word in the contest. Many congratulations Valeria on your win in Nikko's contest >> James
