Old Man Monologue

The old man met many of the faces of death that caught in a sweat. It dripped down the bloodied face and the man front who glared like a steel coldness rocked the thin, pomposity room with its walls bared, the floor wetted by the pouring pools of red liquid.

"You know I need some information about your hurting around my client's business. You understand in the course of action if you lie," the hitman said, emboldened in dark batted eyes. The streamed of blood remineralised like a lack of sympathy for the man's condition, weeped and gone to a storm like it deluted. He stood back and faced the man for a while, the pieces were like ointment where you wished to leave, washed his hands. It smelt like sick and under the influence of death's door as if it was a drink. He gulped it but that whole taste numbered the bitterness as to a

The man held by a rope that felt normality thrown out the window as sneered of blood saturated the disgusted sight. It was something that been seen before but it never changed in a single life.
