DEUS EX MACHINA



Sifting through these shadows, he’s wasting precious seconds, picking up the pieces, the limits—almost endless. Staring through a pinhole, it slowly carves a notch, in anticipation, through the looking glass’ watch. The sweat slips off the bone. The wooden spokes surrender to the tension. The strings begin to part. And then the sudden pause to ease suspension. The gun delivers bullets, insisting its demise. The menace sheds its skin, revealing its disguise. He crumbles to his knees, and together realized. The thing that he had killed was the conscience in his mind.
