Beware this night
When crows take flight
The moon is crescent
The howls are present
The wolves are afraid
The children parade
Trees extend their claws
Pumpkins sharpen their jaws
Witches cackle their laughs
Black cats’ cross paths
Mischief is loose
Nobody’s safe from abuse
Gremlins target their porches
With pitchforks and torches
Makeshift bags in hand
“Trick or Treat” they demand
The dead walk in numbers
Safely bridging the bumpers
Werewolves and Frankenstein
Mummies with no spine
Dracula and...
When crows take flight
The moon is crescent
The howls are present
The wolves are afraid
The children parade
Trees extend their claws
Pumpkins sharpen their jaws
Witches cackle their laughs
Black cats’ cross paths
Mischief is loose
Nobody’s safe from abuse

Makeshift bags in hand

The Killing Fields
Beware this land
A most desolate place
True evil’s at hand
With a cold embrace
Death shadows its gate
Blood quenches its soil
Piked heads lie awake
The damned suffer turmoil
Crows feast on flesh
Picking off the sinew
The agony is fresh
All life must discontinue
Sacrifice and torture
Rape the damns remains
Forever trapped in horror
Fenced around with brains
Crucifixes stretch the dead
Intestines rot in excrement
Hatred spreads like inbred
Ravishing this unholy sediment
Blood whips the night ...

Auto Pilot
Attention steady wanders
Mind over matter
Obsolete thoughts squander
Silent pitter patter
Tour guide central
Trapped for days
Illustrious disturbed mental
Mouse blueprinted maze
Sight seems blind
Black hole space
Empty sounds bind
Entity no face
Downward funnel spiral
Abyssal swallowed pit
Self-destruct made final
Time suffering whit
Principles flutter dim
Speech echoes ears
Prisoner from within
Uncharted mass fears
Zombified act illusion
Diluted motor skills

The Quarantined
The Beginning:
Mayhem suddenly shakes
Some random stranded town
Enormous army tanks divert earthquakes
Mobbed civilians panic, soldiers all around
Megaphones slice violent air
Red with blue lights imprison night
News reporters scramble broadcasted air
Mass hysteria signals fight or flight
Heavily armed commandos
Parade destructive streets
Locked and loaded live ammo
Mock fireworks as christened beats
Camouflaged masks
Shadow bio-hazard suits
Chemical war fare gas
Just in case they bare no fruit
“This...

Sweet Tooth
He wanders through the black
Hauling along his back
A skin woven-ramshackle sac
Adorned with teeth and roots fully intact
Spattered in blood and unholy soil
Prowling under an ambiguous moon
For the stench of his spoil
Camouflaged amongst the crowd
Eyeballing candy that’s chowed
So many intestines waiting to be cowed
The eager are savored at the peak they're endowed
He grimaces a smirk at the thought of their flesh
The selfish are so much more delectable when fresh
His mouth illuminates the holes in his teeth

Unemployed Horror
I payed a visit to your house this morning
I rang the bell and waited
I had a few of my friends with me
Some were impatient, some were infuriated
My long-time best friend Freddy
Said you haven’t been dreaming in a while
How’s he supposed to make a living
If you keep caffeinating on his style
My nephew Chucky wanted to play
Spin the bottle with your son Andy
His knife was of the sharpest and ready
To slice open some old Halloween candy
Michael Myers is still looking for his sister
I told him she was here for a sleepover

Snakeskin Soul And A Lipstick Heart
Through nebulous undertones
And a snakeskin soul
She sauntered over to the bar
"What'll it be"
"The usual"
"Lady I never saw you before"
Looking him up and down appraisingly
"Well then, time to start new traditions"
"Something cold and hard with a twist"
The bartender shook his head
Knowing better than to argue
He concocted a drink in his mind named Sexy Demon
The woman moved through the crowd
Sipping her drink and sizing up her poison
Tall short dark light mmm ...

Uranium
The heaviest natural element known
My heart feels heavier and emptier still
My hollows echo with your silence
The reverberations can end me killed
Vibrate me open
Gush the lifeblood
Paint my portrait
For the Coroner's book of mugs
If time ...
I'll sign your name to it
Killed by ...
From above I look like a butterfly ...
My heart feels heavier and emptier still

Choked in Silence
The frail drums of my ears
Loop alarms excessive enough to bring forth tears
The deafening circus these humans bear
Migrate my migraines the size of a bear
That tears me to shreds until I’m completely bare
This thunderous ruckus shakes away at my pain
Aggressing the sensation of my throbbing pain
Mocking its deeds until I’m insane
Just outside its vantage point where it camps on my pane
Their opera of life reeks of havoc sent
Manure under my nose squatting their shitty scent
Parading around as if they’re so innocent

Be Afraid To Be Alone
The night is growing
You are still awake
Your T.V. is snowing
You have a mild headache
The winds punish your shutters
The rain brutalizes your house
A local owl hoots its mutter
The elements create a rouse
The branches claw your windows
The trees sway along the breeze
The thunder rolls its billows
While the lightning threatens to seize
Your T.V. becomes alive
Broadcasting the local news
There were reports of a demise
On the very street you snooze

PAIN
She extended her hand
Into the bottomless gutter
Welcoming me to a foreign land
A deserted and desolate lover
I embraced her thorns
Till they prickled my heart
Her beautiful emptiness took many forms
I stared into her darkness like a statue of art
She exalted my sorrow
Ushering me to a derelict shack
Infusing my embers to swallow the morrow
Seducing my anguish to saturate the black
She stitched up my soul
But let the scars fester
Tasted my flesh until it was coal
Taking me to heights I could not have measured

Abandonment Issues
I tear into my chest
With my bare hand and nails
Extracting my heart from my breast
I must know all its tales
It beats in my clutch
A seasoned hostage all black and blue
Cold hearted to my touch
Riddled with tiny worms where scar tissue grew
The sewage that seeped from its chambers
Emitted a strong foul must
Ordaining us perfect strangers
A never-ending martyr of trust
The blood that once jogged red
Was now corrupted and black
Conjuring envy as it spread
Consuming its bitterness in its own payback
I slowly applied...
