Unleashed Demons
Reaching past dust
cobwebs and such
bringing to light
a darkness like puss
This gurgling evil
reaching the night
darkness is merging
blood thins with fright
Purple the hue
smearing the sky
blooding the moon
as evening cries
Gripping the stars
this misery held
rustling nasty
A new reigned hell
Wraiths of demons
flow from sight
marking their way
in crimson delight
Howling Hell-hounds
raging through scrub
growls of hunger
fake calls of love
Leaping through trees
shadow reapers appear
raking their talons
in whatever lay near
Shutting this rage
that claws into mind
locking this evil
from staining mankind
