So they were
Curious beings they are
Stalking me with their smile
Bone are their wings; flapping
Croaking a laughter grim

For whats your purpose demon bird?
And with your murder flock
How are you still there when I blink?
Is the smoke form in your eyes poisonous perhaps?
For what is it you laugh at?

I see you in the tree's
I feel you in the air
But what is it demon bird
That fills me with despair?
For you hobble close

Yet keep a distance
What is it you fear?
D e m o n - B i r d ?

------------------------------
Just another hallucination I had. They still follow me around.

(For those who can't visualize these demons, they look like bird skeletons that fly and move like birds. Yet they have a bit of smoke coming out of their eyes. They fly in murders of 6-8. I don't count 'em really. But its more then 5.)

"And with your murder flock"

A line worthy of Poe.

An intriguing read--I thank you.

I had a feeling that Poe would be thought when reading my poem. Haha. Thanks for reading!

I didn't say this before, but the way I visualize them they remind me of the bird things off of Harry Potter. You know, the ones that Luna is always feeding and petting.

Anyway, I like the way that you arranged your words. Great write.

I actually have a recurring dream so similar to this poem Zach. After reading this - guess what I will be dreaming about tonight.

Well done!

Wolf: Thanks you for the high compliment.

Trap: And thanks for liking the topic. But I question if you liked my poem.

Mysteria: Lol. Don't be dreaming of them! They aren't very pleasant to see. But thanks for reading.
