Farther and Farther Down The Ramp

Rubbing your sore face and arms, you continue,

      reluctantly, down the ramp. Your eyes weakened

            in the dim light, it's difficult to make anything 

                   out except which way is down. So you keep on

                         going down, regardless of the boredom you

                              are going through.. knowing that something

                                    good simply must lie ahead.. after all this way

                                         you traveled.. not to mention fell.. You rub

your face again remembering the fall.. it really

    did hurt.. stupid ramp.. stupid mansion.. stupid

           curiosity.. You continue to barrate yourself as

                you finally realize that you're getting closer to

                     the bottom. Your ears pop slightly letting you

                         know that you're even deeper underground than

                              you thought.. Stopping suddenly on the steps, you

                                   listen to the air around you and come to find that

you hear absolutely nothing.. the deathly silence

      frightens you somewhat, but nevertheless, you

           keep moving. The basement has to be close..

                it just has to be.. and yes.. you soon see the

                     end of this deadly downward spiral.. in the

                           form of a dimly lit doorway...

Lighted Doorway
