Poetry: Nightmares

by Ryan Mercer

Created on: May 11, 2009

Within a deep and ancient sea, a terror bides its time
A titanic monstrosity devoid of name and clime
An otherworldly oddity outwith imagination
A terrifying entity defying explanation.

Gargantuan mass of flesh and eyes, of horn, of tails and teeth
So vast, this horror has no size, so distant is its reach
Timeless, ageless, behemoth, spawned from worlds unknown
Infinite and terrible. Restless, watching, growing.

Apocalyptic presence wiser than mere mortal Gods
Cosmic abomination lurking realms from mortal thoughts.
