DEMON #poetry by jay

Artist/Poet_JayMoraShihadeh's avatarThe Artist From The Inside Out

The night hugs you

Prickly and tight

The demon of the

Dark hour

Bleeds black

Lung

A sheer shrill

Echoes

The pulse

Dry eyed

Phantom

Squeezes

A blanket

A sheet

A magazine

Nothing eases

The demon

Of the dark hour

Semen

Phlegm

A hoarse cry

The night emerges

Deaf

Silent dawn

Rises

A tick tock

Clock digs

A ditch in

Your skull.

    Hauntingly terrifying .. this demon piece is a fascinating enfant terrible.

    I like the ditch in the head. Quite the epic ending.

        The dark is mysteriously mystifying .. as long as one doesn’t get scared, that is.
