Asleep, it chases me
Awake, it stalks me
Around corners, up in trees
Alive in the moonlight
Exists in sunbeams
to shadow trips
Haunts my essence
with chilling tendrils
claw my soul, grip my heart
Let the blood run up the elbows
congealing to crusty hard
like a morbid erection
flattened on cement
sweet, salty, and delicious
Ambrosia of Satans palace
Licks its lips
It lusts for more
I'm running faster
Not fast enough
Can feel his breath
like icicles dripping off
the recesses of my spirit
So afraid of the unknown beast
Sleepless unrest...

Love always and blessed be my children
