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!”
