 Dragonflies entered entangled mass of my intestine, 

black scorpions clambered up conical face, 
venom spiders spun silky webs in my mouth, 
red termites stung naked patches of my flesh, 
colossal pythons embraced me in a strangle hold grip, 
wild creepers curled themselves choking concealed arteries of my throat, 
sharp blades of sword caressed limp hair on my chest, 
concentrated curry of salt was poured on body, 
spiked leather whips lambasted salt soaked regions of my back, 
flaming embers of coal were placed in my eye, 
a cluster of alligator were left berserk to roam beside me, 
a ball of pointed thorn was placed before me to eat, 
buckets of fuming acid were emptied over my feet, 
a plethora of sewage cockroach was thrown on scalp hair, 
i had just arrived a few hours ago, 
the surface of land was scattered with dead bone and skull, 
there was gruesome darkness everywhere, without a trace of dawn and light, 
it was raining incessantly, with the rain drops being of pure blood.
 
weeks elapsed as the torture continued unrelentingly, 
a sudden spurt of blindness gushed past my eyes, 
strong beams of light emanated from his persona, 
a golden aura encompassed his facial contours, 
he proclaimed himself to be the God of hell, 
enumerated the list of my brutal misdeeds on earth, 
charging me with heinous crimes, murder, and assault on the innocent, 
dictating orders to subservient followers of tormenting me, 
left as abruptly as he had appeared, 
leaving me to bear the brunt of what we perceive in common parlance, 
as hell and beyond.
