The Thirty-Second Floor written by Erick F.

The Thirty-Second Floor

Run! Do you not hear that?
The crash the boom the roar of
Rubble falling to the floor,
22 people on the thirty-second
Floor but only two heard the monstrous
Roar outside the walls of the
Thirty-second floor-

Run! No time to waste danger
Lurks within these walls; we
Must descend to the ground
Where all is safe and nothing
Will break unlike the walls of the
Thirty-second floor-

Run! Leave those behind to
Meet their fate make no
Mistake the end is close for
Many but far for few
Who choose to make haste and
Escape their fate
Let them be irate about the
Claims you make-

Run! Out the door
On to the street do not
Turn back to watch the steel
Beast burst through the walls of the
Thirty-second floor
Do not be unsure about
Decisions you have made
But the decisions you must make
As you flee the cries of plea
Which were once irate but
Now cry desperately for
An escape from the walls of the
Thirty-second floor.
