Shadow People

A diaphanous glow This uncanny manifestment From heinous realm i do now know Recanting this calamitous affair A shadowy outline only would show Then frigid cold air as I peered into darkness I could not compare yet somehow disambiguate Like antimatter, twas dark Twas in my kitchen yes the darkest part The spot is now landmarked There was no ommision Oh my beating heart and one of a Griffin I chose to embark as if on a mission A dog barked, I listened My courageous approach I hearked, then resumed my march Off to their room it would go Of those whom i love most Toward the damnable Flagitous it smelled- so gross It spelled something- no ghost Absurd, I'd heard of these.. These unpleasant entities? Concerned to say the least..Jesus please! Had i brought it inadvertently? Self resentment, what's my defense? And should i repent? On he I depend...I didn't forget Was it invoked, or did i provoke? This silhouette, at fourteen feet this was no joke Twas not forseen I would not choke The divine I would seek On high, the almighty Twas he I'd beseech Signs all around Self awareness increased I prayed over them Back to the netherworld Back with the beast I said stay away from them I'd somehow mend a breech Day to day I pray for them and this has brought me peace.
