Mystified creatures of mortal breed.
Casted in fibres white,
Of an anciet tribe.

In peace, with hope.
Held on to heaven's rope.

Obsessed with Goddess of purrs,
Cats of black furs.
Bestowed with nine lives,
Species of dark lies.

Mummies centuries old;
Unwrapped,
Lies unfold.

Socket's hollowed,
Absence from hope.
Bones like twigs,
On an age-old oak.

Shrunken cheeks;
Revealing ribs.
Signs of starvation,
From eternal salvation.

Gap ajar, screams of horrors.
Reaching out,
From depths of deep burrows.
