Cthulhu reloaded
While in times before
We
Accepted
Sacrifices
Of
Succulent
Flesh
Truly
Far more delectable do we find
Your
Tender
Human
Minds
Harvested sip by delicious terror-filled sip
We elder ones can indefinitely
Prolong the agony and keep
Our tables loaded
Our larders groaning
(oh yes! That pun's intended)
We so enjoy your cries of woe
And knowing we're stocked up as well
Those times when you so inconvenienced us by dying in droves
Not by our design: bubonic plague, for instance and any other pesky maladies not of our choosing
Were so displeasing
But one thing you've always done so well is breed, breed, breed
We DO like that feature about you
So
Breed
Some
More
Young
Minds
For
Us
To feast upon and corrupt
This way the delicacies are never-ending
Each day abounds in new delights
We horrify
And terrify
Nightmares we sip from sleeping minds
Daylight no more ends the dreams
For we're embodied as you see
You come and worship trembling in awestruck terror at our feet (well, tentacles, Ahhh look, delicious terror sweeps 'cross your grimacing faces)
You bring sacrifices hoping to assuage the beasts (we know the names you call us) Care not. We eat.
The joke's on you; there is no satiation; we ever hunger...
