There’s a thing with a winding neck
and long, thin, fingers and toes
and he’s the reason for all of your woes.

He’s got round empty eyes
and an almost shamefully pointed head
and he’ll haunt us until we’re dead.

He’s trapped inside an empty cage
and his skin is blacker than the bars at night
but his eyes, they glow and unreflecting light.

He climbs the walls and perches
he’s trying to get a better view
look closely...he’s looking at you.

And above him there’s a banner
as painfully black as tomorrow
and it reads the creatures name...sorrow.

I got the shivers off this one. Now I will not sleep tonight for sure. Pointy heads will scare anyone, even if it wasn't sorrow in disguise. I wish there was a banner like that so I would know when not to bother.
