Foaming at the mouth
internal exorcism
of deep demonic scars
left long ago
under cover of night
pale moonlit
graves
shine like diamonds
on this eve
wake from your slumber
you hounds of hell
you creatures from the abyss
who have seduced
with wine debauchery
laced with harlot
poisoned favor
Awken oh my hellish heart
so thou must dine
on the soul
left for vulture's feast
on but this
this evil eve
I remember rote childhood prayers
vaguely
trying to call down angels
as I fall into the abyss
impaling myself
on the razor point
of my own delusion
as Gabriel laughs in the distance

You do have a brilliant way of getting your point across!

Dan,

Remarkably well done and a little scary...
