Torture~An Attempted Sonnet

Do what my eyes now see?The darkness laden;

My pain adorning it’s broken crown.

Chemicals running through miles of body,

the torture won’t stop ‘til answers are there.

Blood dripping: solace from agonies grip,

the interrogators: suspected sadists.

Smiling sadists together inside the room

means preparation for bodily doom.

The madmen ask about secrets

worth dying to protect. My living, or others?

Morality’s question. The simple answer

floats in shadows. Sadists waiting for their

answers: “Suck it, sadists”, my reply.

Needles waiting for those words continue now my torture.
