Twin Beds-with Grace

 
In shadows beneath the bed  
death among the bangers  
listening to the curse  
swallowing the dead  
in shadows beneath the bed  
of a zombie eating my shoes  
from heel to tongue  
a rigid corpse cold and glum  
 
The whine of eager hunger  
echoes in desolate halls  
gangrenes light sweep walls  
hiding the hordes of darkness  
created monsters of the human mind  
the safety of beds on both sides  
mere desperate imagination  
helpless in hopelessness
