the enemy's lines

watch your step,
you dont wanna get slapped.
watch your toes,
you dont wanna get stepped.

it's the enemy!
"incoming!", he screamed as he ran.
he ran to the ends of the world,
to the depths of the sea.

what happens when what one thinks is his ally,
turns out to be the one eating him away.
he shivers at the sight of that grey shade on the floor,
as his life eats itself away.
