Author: Mrs. Kitsune Just like the title, only this is the POEM STYLE! Warning: Edgar Allen Poe has very creepy works, and this is morbid and creepy, but there wasn't a poem setting for that.

The Pit and the Pendulum (POEM FORM! YEAH BABY!)
As I stood in front of the seven judges,
Waiting for my fate to be sealed,
I couldn't help but feel sick,
And so my knees started to yield.
.
Everything was black,
And I knew no more,
But I knew the future ahead of me,
Would be filled with nothing, but gore.
.
I awoke in a dark place,
I dared not open my eyes,
Was it an endless dark?
Or will it be a hideous guise?
.
I opened them slowly,
And cried out in despair,
My worst fear had been true-
There was nothing but darkness there!
.
I felt very faint,
And let out a yell,
I felt for the wall,
And realized it must be just a cell.
.
I wondered what was in store for me,
For my sentence had said death,
And I knew that any moment now,
I could breathe my last breath.
.
I walked around the room,
And counted fifty two paces,
What was going through my mind?
Similar to swords and maces.
.
I decided to walk across,
And tripped on my robe
I realized my chin touched the floor,
But not my lips, forehead, or nose.
.
Meh, not done yet, but oh well. I will update at my leisure, and flames will be used to cook the flamers' flesh. (Not really, but that's what I picture doing. So what? I'm sane.)
[She swears!]
Shut up, Dani!
[NEVER!]
(Together-)
{We're sane, don't worry.}
