Nightmares (poem)

By August Steiner-Zehender

[Printer-Friendly Version]

They come screaming
Crashing silently
Crablike in movement
Black
Amorphic
Erumpent
Dark insatiable shades
Devouring the light
Eating inside
And out
Wife Children Family Friends
Life
Holes no light shines through
Only grating noise
Shining darkly
On youths rotting corpse
