It's a little low qaulity
Just so you know, recently a six is fairly low for me to give out, that coupled with a 3/5 (3/5 is a little more common). You had a good idea and interesting background scheme. But the surrealism just seemed kind of shallow and it didn't get much of a reaction out of me. But the guy in the end being tied to the table going nuts kind of made me feel sorry for him.
The message I think is that if you try hard enough you can win but sometimes you end up at base one with an even worse deck of cards. (no i don't think life is only a deck of cards lol :). Next time try to come up with a more original and make it more emotional. That could be done partly by making it a little bit longer and showing the characters view of the world around him more and how his mind is affected instead of just running and stopping to shake his head in madness.
Decent job though and I'll be checking out your other pieces of work, if you have any though. I'm not sure if you're new or not,
