Silent, scared, and stupefied they stare with dumbfounded
gaze upon the alphabetical characters, which comprise the humorless lines of
text; that will decide their fate
Eyes roll within their sockets; presenting varied glimpses
of apprehension, angst, and abhorrence punctuated with deep sighs and the
telltale slumped shoulders of depression.
Thus passes the moments leading to the appointed hour of
decision. Not unlike the condemned man
they wait to receive pardon or punishment from the state.
All experience a sense of doom as the clock moves forward in
an unrelenting pace. For some the call
will come and relief will fill their hearts, but alas some shall gain no
reprieve.
