Alexis Hogg Poet Abecedarian

October Thirty First

October Thirty-first
creature after creature
carefully finding their way to your
chaotic world
cyclops and 
chimeras
carelessly chasing humans around like toys
camazotzs and
coinchenns
cramming young human and animal flesh into their
considerably terrifying muzzles
creatures creeping around every
corner
caged in the coldest part of hell
circumvented for one day of every year
circumspect the worse for
creatures are free on
October thirty-first
