Hounds

Onward then does Time ascend the eons it does build Within the endless void of space which never shall be filled Deep within the eons past, a Potency there compels Horrors be extended from Evils which are Hells’ And herein do I dwell within Hell’s castle keep With keys I do open doors and let the evils creep Avarice and malfeasance let loose to run amuck Despair and sorrow following, causing their havoc Slimes that ooze and glisten with names that you know well Cultivate and incubate the tribulations that are Hells’ I unleash the Hounds of Hell, in silence do I watch Devoutly do they search - for souls they will debauch Hounds of Hell cause someone to bid their soul adieu … And now, my festered eyes await the soul they’ll bring from YOU!

Taking nothing for granted I believe I have a Guardian Angel with all that has happened in my life and my Fathers before me. He should have drowned. My Auntie who could not swim remembers Dad going under for second time as a kid and finding herself at edge of water hole at back of place with Dad coughing up water and herself all wet. Had double pneumonia as baby, not expected to live. Got localised lymphoma cancer 2019. Not back yet. Well crafted poem we shouldn't dismiss lightly. David in NZ

Yes, Jack. The Hounds of hell will devour a soul if that soul does not have the strength to resist. This would certainly be a nightmare that would get your attention. Well written and recorded, my friend. Hey, Jack. I thought since you had a dog as you constant companion as a boy, that you might like my poem. " Sonny And The Pooch." Take a look, my friend. Robert.

The soul can become an "easy meal" for those who go unawares. I'm pleased you liked reading "Hounds...", Robert. I have already read, and commented, on your "Sonny ..." - which I thought to be another of your wonderful writes. Jack C

Ha! Yes, I understand. This poem doesn't represent ME, but it WAS in a nightmare I had ... and ... I recorded it. I think it's a bit "dark" in character! Jack C
