The Ultimate Caged Fury
A villanelle about the Elimination Chamber

In chains of steel the circle stands unyielding
Six souls locked where mercy never dwells
Pods hold the damned while two begin the bleeding
The buzzer screams, another door is peeling,
A fresh predator joins the ringing hells
In chains of steel the circle stands unyielding
The ring becomes a cage of pain, unfeeling
Bodies crash on grated floor and rails
Pods hold the damned while two began the bleeding
Each interval births fury, no concealing
The hate that every entrant soon compels
In chains of steel the circle stands unyielding
They climb, they fall, the structure sends them reeling
No count, no DQ, just pins and anguished yells
Pods hold the damned while two began the bleeding
One final breath, one last defeated kneeling
The last man stands amid the tolling bells
In chains of steel the circle stands unyielding
Pods hold the damned while two began the bleeding
About the Creator
Clyde E. Dawkins
I'm a big sports fan, especially hockey, and I've been a fan of villainesses since I was eight! My favorite shows are The Simpsons and Family Guy, etc.
