Hellhounds

Resting in bed peacefully I lay awaiting the new day as the last one is now dead In the midst of silence and solitude I hear them like the banging of sheet metal The hounds bark and i do shiver as it startles my heart because now walking on my level is no one other the devil They howl and they cry a growl so bloodcurdling it keeps me up all night And I hear the rumble The one that calls to me Like the blowing of a horn Reviving the children stillborn Calling to the shadows lying over me and the demons inside us we can’t see The hellhounds they dance and they cry I hide and I cower In my small house painted in white I do hope the sound will stop As I cannot sleep If this is the sound of hell I have no desire to meet red belle
