Fast
Toss the knotted rope
Thrust the knife
Standing still
I wait

Kill the pain
Leave the burdens at heavens gate
In anxiety I saturate
Standing still
I wait

Rain
Falling from hell
Washing me in bloody tales
Standing still
I wait

Drowning
As I drink old mans ale
Tranquility killed
Stranding still
I wait

Beginning
The road to dust
Horror seems to be a must
Standing still
I wait

Ending
Agony dances on my head
Angels running from me
Standing still
I wait

Black
Both blood and the night
Rotting to nothing
Still
I wait no more

"They also serve, those who stand and wait." Just as you loved my WAITER, I love this Arthur.

Wow, this is a wondrously dark and a perfect Halloween write! I know you could be writing this not for a Halloween topic, but it is wonderful for this time of the year! You have impressed me beyond any scope with this delightfully spooky poem, What a grandiose piece, Great Work!!
