Restless, as my mind wanders
And my body cannot find the way
Like the leaf so desperately clinging
To that one last moment
Until the wind, relentless in its fury
Captures me, in a single gust
Cascading, swirling, slowly
Teasing the veins of my limbs
With the chill of October

Cluttered with words
That don’t make sense
No space in my head to expand
Jumbled art, falling apart
Trying hard to understand
The letters clump
One on one
It’s getting harder to decipher
Slithering around , hissing profound
About to strike like a poisonous viper
Then the clearing begins
As I sort it all out
Finding time to slowly subdue it
Quietly thinking, words finally shrinking
Til someone decides to add to it

It is time that I
wrap myself in
silken threads
and slumber, not
for eternity, but
for a moment, until
I am no longer
an ugly creature
but one of beauty and grace
And I can spread my wings
and fly

Amidst the fog and full moon light
A house glows red with demonic delight
Terror reigns from deep within
Fills the air with a piercing din
Spirits roam the darkened grounds
Shrilling, shrieking, sounds abound
Horror shakes the shrouded land
That hides this fortress, once so grand
Haunting, against the black of night
Demons feast on earthly fright
