To A Nightmare

***Poem from Writing class

Seeping blood in dreams corrupted
Like faces from the morgue of hell
Distant screams of giddy devils
Demons come to ring the bell
Dancing in the twilight zones
A comfort they can find alone
Shining lights dim and burst
Turns to red; the damned and cursed
To feed on souls lost from heaven
To sink sharp teeth on rotting flesh
To turn their hunger to a nightmare
Eating hearts out from dead kids' chests
Children wail and scream at night
Awoken from their quiet slumber
Pray for angels in the light
Instead of monsters brought by thunder
