Nothing Happened Here

Windowless space screams
Feet spasm in betrayal
It's too late to change his fate
                                Chair pushed to the side
                                Life tossed away in the trash
                                If only the rope could talk...                   



for Rick's Contest "A Chair On A Shadowy Room"
