A gristly morning dawns Ripe with the taste of rotten copper splashed across my tongue I can feel pressure under my nail beds from dirt crescent moons that linger Wild wind swept dreams pull my pounding heart back away from the edge of no where Ghosts move in and out, sullenly through the mist Panting, running, screaming, ripping ,tearing Blood. I am what the darkness fears. Whispered curses, the old days filled with mystery and magick Spark a desire for the shadows of night Consume me Skin so tight. Joints pop and grow with holy white faces turning swollen, full Devour the light. Over and through I am twisted and bent until with a groaning stretch I am no more
