Eyes
by Joseph Cube
Entering the chamber, the musty smell of age greeted
him. It wrapped slowly around him suffocating him as
a mothers bosom. He look to his left and saw nothingness,
and he looked to his right and saw nothingness more. He
looked ahead and he saw a dark figure. With human
curiosity he slowly began to approach. His shoes
echoing remorse, the smell of age grew stronger he slowed
his journey stopping only a few feet from the figure. Not
able to see all, he did see the figures eyes. Windows
to the soul, these windows showed nothing soulless,
lifeless, nothing. He stepped back slowly, but
coming to an abrupt stop as the figure slowly
moved as well. Unable to turn his eyes away he continued
to look into the figures deep pools of dark
nothingness. Raising a hand in sudden courage or defiance,
the figure moved again, his hand dropped in terror. And
still his whole self were transfixed upon the blackholes
which seemed to stare back at him following his every move,
beckoning him to join. His knees began to buckle and
he fell kneeling to the ground, the musk now
suffocating him. And he looked up and saw the figure
rise, with its eyes staring into his own. He tried
to scream in terror but the musk entered him and
would not allow him to. Now with no choice nor
any thought of escape he crawled toward the figure,
its shape growing in size with every inch he took,
but still he continued to look and now he could
see more, much more than he could see before. More
than he wanted to see, for past the dark pools of
oblivion which whirled and threatend to take him, he
saw somthing familar, somthing vaugly familar, he
slowly began to recognize the figure and he realized
what it was, who it was, and etched upon its forehead
was written Exeunt omnes*. His, terror with renewed
strength, he screamed, and the mirror broke.
*they all leave
