Waiting Under the Colosseum
As if earplugs were taken out, James could suddenly hear the world around him with clarity. There were shouts and barks. Flames roared and crackled while metallic scrapes and clashes filled the air. James coughed again. This time a violent desperate cough. The strong scent of gasoline stung at his nose. James’ eyes fluttered open as he attempted to breathe through the back of his hand; as if that would filter anything. Around him was a small square of dirt that was boxed in by iron bars. James sat in a cage, the lock keeping the door pinned shut. But he wasn’t the only one. The room must’ve been the size of a couple large shipping containers. The ceiling was low and the walls were coated in metal shards and sheets, all welded together to make a quilt of red rust. In long rows were cages upon cages. A space for a wide walkway ran between the cells for men to move through. In the small prisons were people. Well, the silhouettes of people. Small dim lamps hung from the ceiling. Each one swaying from the chain they clung to. A few coughs and moans escaped from the other prisoners’ lips but no other noise came from them.
