Silent Scream

Come over here. Hush, hush quiet. Thread your arm through mine, cover up your ears. Hush, hush quiet. Eyes like coals, burning hot. A stench a smell a fetid breath. A bellowing roar, the crack of a plate. Windows tremble and the walls shake. Hold on tight, no sound must you make. Hush, hush quiet. Ponderous feet the stairs do meet, slamming doors now a silence to greet. Move if you must, I cannot tell. Stay invisible in this well. Hush, hush quiet, the monsters awake. ©K.Chun 2014
