The gravediggers

by Rien Wijnsma
Amsterdam, The Netherlands


The Council decided.
"We'll dig a hole and build the City a decent metro".
Prices rose as the digging got deeper.
The pit was bottomless, no light at the end of the tunnel.
No turning around now.
The metro became their tomb, they just had to fill in the hole.
