Keck .
Keck .
Keck .
His beack dragged on the dirty floor
That floor?
Was no longer where he dances happily
"Ha.    ha .    ha."
Even his laugh  was broken
No sign of the beaming light but
DARKNESS.
Teck .
Teck.
Teck.
His nails scratch against the dirty floor
There was no force left to lift his foot  up And walk
But
scratching
   And
     Dragging
       Scratching
         And
           Dragging
              That was his way of life
