Loophole
Flames all around growing hotter and higher.
Locking himself in the room, pacing frantically,
The man with a past falls to his knees,
Begging, if he’d please.
Sweat and tears,
A pounding heart.
The prince of darkness approaches.
Out the door, and through the street,
Running faster than ever before,
Looking for a place of worship.
He takes a short cut through a dark alley,
Stopping for directions.
Asked for all his belongings,
With a gun pointed to head,
He takes advantage of the situation,
Refusing to give in.
A bullet to the head.
A free ticket to salvation.
