Chapter 4 - Chaos is Poem

Flames of wrath fill the room

Alongside impending doom

People flock like hares in terror

Only to lead themselves to a place of possibility

Possibilities of chaos

Men and women shouting as the chorus in the opera sing to their hearts' delight

Chanting and chanting in rhythm of the howls of the people

Gun fires release from the trigger

One two three four

Each drop dead on the floor

The small price to pay for listening to this melodic tune

The soap opera is still beginning

Curtain lit ablaze

Alongside the peoples frames

One two three four

More bodies drop to the floor

Blood oozing like wine being poured

Yet there is more to explore

In the next room was the escapees

Only left stuck in their flee

No shooter however can be seen

And now they begin to plea

"Please end the horrors of today and let us see a new tomorrow with a bright sunny day and no more martyrs"

A glimmer of hope enters their eyes as a window can be seen in sight

"Quick break the window, this is our chance"

They begin grabbing chairs and flares

Attempting to signal distress in their escape of the building

One two three four

Strikes towards the bulletproof window

One two three four

People pleaded for the glass to break

One two three four

Of the mansions support beams falling to the floor

All engulfed in flames setting the people ablaze

The soap opera has yet to end and has only reached it's medial

The sound of gun fires has stopped for a while so the people escape the room 

Only to return to the bodies of everyone

They ask "where's the chorus?"

As the opera is still ongoing

Flames overtake the building as the room gets smokey and smokey

Coughing begins as ash fills their lungs

"Exits, where's the exits" they yell as no door can be found in sight

"But we entered from one, how's there no door? Where's the chorus?"

One two three four

More bodies drop to the floor

Five six seven eight

People who look for the chorus

"Maybe if we find them, they'll have answers"

They say as insanity begins to fog their minds

Trampling over one another in order to quickly seek for answers

One two three four

Skeletons can be seen singing and humming in the sky

One two three four

Skeletons can be heard saying

"This chaos brings forth our magnum opus. Escape you shall not do, as you are sacrifices to this room"

One two three four

More people have dropped to the floor from the ash

One two three four

More people are left standing

As the Opera nears its end

The room in fully engulfed in flames

The lives of everyone are a small price to pay

To bring forth the the best of the chorus is days

As they end their magnum opus

The screams of the remaining can be heard from the depth of hell ending the melody of the chorus
