Analysis of The gallows.
I look over and see that there is a man standing next to me. He wears a black mask and does not throw shadow. I can feel a tightrope around my neck, and I really think I'm not going to see another tomorrow. The man waits for a sign. I think he's very shallow. The door I'm staying on is very narrow. So I hear a click, and everything turns black. I know I'm never coming back.
