A Wrongness In The Room

What's that thing at night

Click click clicking on the floor

The smell of rot and blight

Brimstone odor of kingdoms nevermore

Voice calling from the window sill

A reverberance on the air

If only fright would quickly kill

Relief from a nightmare

Speech of  damned mimicry

What could be that thing

Noise which should not be

Silent steps and scratching pangs

Silhouette of unnatural shape

Mocking creation's throne

Visions of murder and rape

Knife cracking bone

Not a howl but an audible sin

Here it is in the room

Who the hell let it in

Visage of dread and doom
