Insanity Floated Through the Door

Insanity floated through the door An aberration with wild hair entered Her mouth was open, blood ran out Down her tunic, past her belt She felt deranged, a lunatic from where? There was a madness in the room now I felt unbalanced, frenzied myself. Where was my rationality? Why wasn’t I running? Her fingernails formed into red claws Almost talon-like, I was thinking of a turkey buzzard Something unholy that would readily dig into roadkill. She flashed her dead black eyes toward me. I froze; terrified. Wanted to scream, but nothing came out. She began floating toward me.
