Members Only .. Part Six "Dead Awake" The Conclusion

Lance screamed as his fingers ripped ~
The doorknob had become magnetized by the strong force,
It was as if his hand had become fused to the doorknob.
The vacuum was so intense ~
It was ripping off his skin and blood sprayed from his pores,
It looked like acid ate his flesh – leaving a bloody blob.
~ ~ ~
Lance was now becoming weak ~
He had no will left to fight and his sight had became dim,
He no longer felt any pain and his head began to spin.
Stone then walked over to Lance ~ 
He said “It’s now time Mr. Knight, for you to say goodbye”,
Stone then sliced off Lance’s hand with his eight inch bowie knife.
~ ~ ~
Lance went flying through the air ~
He was being sucked into MOM’s strong magnetic grip,
All was becoming black – unconsciousness setting in.
Lance heard voices calling him ~ 
The rest of the signed Members were awaiting his arrival,
There was nothing he could do to ensure his own survival.
~ ~ ~
All of the fellow Members ~
With linked hands formed a circle – where Lance landed in the center,
Two of the men stepped to the side allowing Stone to enter.
Stone once again addressed Lance ~ 
“lance! Lance!! LANCE!!!  For Crying Out Loud!!! LANCE – Will You Just WAKE UP!!! “
 ~ ~ ~ 

Lance started to come to ~ 
He looked up with a dazed and confused expression on his face.
He then looked around the smoke filled room - He somehow knew this place.
The bartender said, “Damn Man!!
That was one hell of a celebration you had for yourself,
You drank yourself into oblivion, Damn, you look like hell!”
~ ~ ~
Lance held his head in both hands ~
Trying to compose himself … Wondering … What does it all mean?
When the bartender said, “Looks like you had one hell of a dream?”
Lance said “Yes”, and shook his head ~
The bartender smiled and said “You were screaming in your sleep.,
I tried to wake you, but you wouldn’t rise., you were so glued to your seat.
~ ~ ~
The bartender continued ~
“You partied like a rock star when you won the VIP pass,
To the new strip club downtown, You would’ve thought you won the lottery?!
~ ~ ~ 
~ Man ..  You should have seen your face!!! ~
~ ~ ~
Lance, just couldn’t help but laugh ~
Despite how he currently felt, in his inebriated state,
That’s when he said, it was time to be getting back to his place.
~ ~ ~
Lance then reached for his car keys ~
The bartender said “You’re not driving pal – I called for a cab,
Just be patient, it’ll be here soon, just sit back and relax.”
The cab arrived and blew it’s horn ~
And as Lance was getting ready to make his way outside,
The Bartender said, “Lance ~ wait up! Don’t forget to take your prize!”
~ ~ ~ 
The bartender then helped Lance ~
He put on his coat and then escorted him to the door.
Lance thanked him and said “Man, you’re the best damn bartender, for sure.”
He turned and smiled at Lance ~
Shook his hand and said “Congratulations! Have a safe ride home.”
Lance said, Thanks a lot my friend, I’ll see you next Friday night, Stone!”

knight, you know I was pleased that the gore stopped and Lance made it. Happy endings are always my preference yet life is not always that way. You spent so much time and poetic efforts entertaining us here. ty' ginga

A suggestion my friend, go to (submissions@poetrymagazine.org) a published magazine that accepts internet submissions. They are looking for fictional short stories, poetry etc. They pay well if accepted. 10

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
