They Scream
A young man climbs
From a crowd below
Up a steep metal ladder
Through the blistering snow.
To see the view
And the wonders in store.
As for the building
Its stories are four
When he reaches the top
He looks to the scene
Of people down below
As they begin to scream.
"Do it!" They yell.
"Jump" They scream.
"Come on!" They Cry
This must be a dream.
The man begins to cry
All he wanted was to see.
The people start to fight
And gnash at him with teeth
Thirsty for blood
Anything for the rush
For their satisfaction
Your dreams they will crush
Another man comes
Gives him a hush.
Stares him in the eyes
And gives him a push.
Down he goes
Still crying so loud
The people, they scream...
As he lands without a sound.
They tear him to pieces
To relieve their hunger
Ripped his bones to shreds.
And let blood run asunder.
When its over and done.
They all return
To the calm stance.
And await the next mans turn.
