Contest entry for Writer's Cramp

The Web of Life

The old man lay in the trap, machines
Humming  by his side, his
Eyes staring  at the ceiling.

Wrapped like a cocoon
Each limb connected
By a strand to his predator.

Life was being drained from his body
Inside was only soul.
Freedom would come
Eventually. Eventually.
