Nocturnal Monsters

Zombies yearn, xanthic weathered

vaults, under tannic, stagnant, repugnant quagmires.

Places odious nocturnal monsters like killer jackals, ingest

humans, grappling for every delicious, 

creamy brain appetizer.

Great one for the contest Emile. X is always a hard letter to come up with something that fits decently and you did this well! Glad I found you this morning.
