fright of the mind



creak of the limb of

the tree in the night,

fright of the mind of

the things out of sight


shape of the beast of

a horrifying creation

lurks in between in the

late hour's imagination


frail cries are stifled as

a trembling body falters,

visions of torture as

states of sanity are altered


taste blood in the mouth

but the blood is not there,

sharp pains in the flesh

but the flesh is unaware


who comes forth? what

dreaded trespasser surprises?

how these eyes deceive me

with trickery and disguises


what's born next to conquer?

what phantom rings the bells?

these echoing chimes haunt

with discordant tones that tell
