This misanthrope lived
most all his life alone,
yet upon awakening
this very early morn,
mine eyes saw me prone
naked body adrip atop
blood soaked sheets,
that glommed to mine
lacerated flesh and shone
deep red as moonlight seeped
thru chink in the stone wall,
nothing else stirred
'cept myself abed,
but sinew and bone
suddenly alarmed
what demon slashed
into red ribbons,
whence fright suddenly,
I choked, gasped,
and loosed a groan
upon e'en the slightest movement
found me to moan
with excruciating pain,
while in thine head
did sinister demon fueled,
a wounded pained animal groan
maniacal cackling gradually
increasing to an ear piercing,
hounding and deafening tone,
whence hands attempted
to clap away
evil frightful shrill
ne'er heard nor known
afore this nightmarish scene
capped when nine inch nails
caked with thick
dried blood shown
in the dim light affixed
to monster sized brown
paws not my own,
yet latched to this
gruesome near slain
(bodily heap of mine)
ogre haunted nemesis over blown
sanity, and frightfully unknown
as like an accursed beast
methought hie got catapulted
to the outer limits
of the twilight zone.
