Blood Red Moon

Blood Red Moon Deep devouring passions bleed now from this solar eclipse As black blood flows from an evil army of “undead” beings Whose fangs hideously and cruelly pierce the veins of their Mesmerized and unsuspecting victims who are held at bay. In such silence burdens prowl inside deep sad heartbeats As ghastly living shadows creep eerily in and knot the Tortured guts of a twisted scared bloodless life falling Under the dark macabre gaze of the Blood Red Moon. At night uncanny black magic spells are intoned in the Old Latin scripture as large spider webs cast a gloomy Presence and envelope now all those trapped by them as The misted breath bleeding hearts howl to Heaven’s roar. Standing upon a rugged and lonely mountain crossroad There can be no release from the devilish glare of the Vaunted “Blood Red Moon” whose evil presence pervades Every breath you take and casts a demonic derisive stare. My senses are now frozen in place as a deep chill shakes My soul to the very core of its primordial existence as I React to the cutting cold of a dawning maleficent darkness Invading every corner and space of my psyche and existence. The wicked jaws of a rabid beast seek now to bite and rip All beauty from me and all thoughts I hold close and dear As I gasp now for life and painfully feel my tired heartbeat Slow as my immortal soul numbs and cries crocodile tears. I’m cursed now to walk alone forever as my spilled remains Are cut now and my ties of human existence have disappeared Putting me on the ground on all fours as I ponder my ultimate Fate in the hands of a supernatural force beyond any mercy. As the shadow of Lucifer’s Blood Red Moon passes over my Tortured face I spy a look at one demonic siren prompting me Now to follow her as my body is placed on a sacrificial alter And my life ebbs away as I’m kissed by spirits of the damned!
