Image for the poem indigo

indigo

tied ribbon, stained indigo
on a figure, shadow black
flesh hungry, blood thirsty, wendigo
gaze on you, and sure to attack

hunting season, only winter game
beware, indigo tricks the wandering eye
hide or run, outcome the same
dragged in snow, to den below, where you'll die

this soul-stirring blue, irresistible.. tempts you
if you do, the devil will grin
that's when canines pierce through, fur and claws too
commit the cannibal sin

now, the indigo stained ribbon is tied
born is the insatiable demon inside.
