Chains

Chains
 
Here's to chains
Bounding me as I strain.
I'm on a platform
Taking lashes,
Feeling like it's Calvary.
Blood flows down my back
As I become like a zebra.
All of you in the audience 
Remind me so much
Of rabid sports fans taking delight.

There is no use for tears,
For they've been dammed up for years.
I won't get them out
But they only seem to be barracaded in.
Enjoying the darkness while I can
Since it's the only way I can get by.
The sun died and the moon thrived,
And I'll howl all the live-long night.
