hangman

this feeling
twists and turns
through my mind
like rope burns
on the neck
of the man hanging
three feet
off the ground
not far enough
a drop
to snap the neck
no humanity
in swaying
as the world
slowly
dissolves into nothing
before
blood filled orbs
a game of hangman
for one
played
before an awestruck
crowd
of none
