Phantom like arachnid crawl Ghostly apparition Descends bedroom wall Silence The silence is deafening As she hangs Practically materialized He tries to run But cannot hide Cannot move Paralyzed Yet his eyes stay wide Anticipation Morbid fascination Voulnerable prey Trapped in a sickly Sticky straightjacket Its color akin with spun Moonlight Maddenig He struggles and squirms But not for long Incapacitated by the silence Succumb to her sting Gifted the kiss of death As wind agitates tree leaves Blackness envelopes consciousness Mind folds down Around exhaustion Eyelids weary, head too heavy Weathered hands grasp But his last breath escapes tired lungs Tangles into the breeze Ascends higher, without hesitation To agitate trees leaves
