Mr Vampire
Poems
Sep 2020
held down; imprisoned
unforgiving silence
flesh on vacant sheets
the usual shadow prison
creeps closer
grips tighter
than ever before
relentless
the fingers of uncertainty
restrict thought
this hold it has
won't be leaving
for many moons
as clocks turn
these violent spectres
become increasingly aggressive
until the hollow shell
has become swallowed
by the darkness feared
that under the affectionate guise
was let in
