Fish in the cage, swimming <br />Killer in his cell, smiling, grinning <br />A beast caged in the heart of the city <br />That same man is now feeling pity <br />The doorbell light flickers on and off <br />A man comes to fix it <br />But then it disappears <br />Getting fixed was its only fear <br />The shadow in the night <br />Comes in and goes out <br />It turns on and off the light <br />You better make sure that noose is hanging tight <br />Does the trapdoor work? <br />Is everything all right? <br />The girl comes to sell her body <br />I don’t know why she sought me <br />The beast caged in the heart of the city <br />Hes gotten out now <br />He will start killing now <br />We have to get out <br />We will go on the run <br />And you’re the one I want to come <br />Weve made it out alive <br />But the others weren’t so lucky inside <br />I think were the last two to survive <br />Lets build a shelter <br />Lets get everything together <br />Lets try to make it a little better <br />We have to cross the river <br />To get to the other side <br />To help in our search of life <br />We try to swim across <br />We instantly get lost <br />But at what cost? <br />Our hopes of survival have just been tossed<br /><br />Robbie Squires<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/killer-in-his-cell/
