Poetry: Demons

by lori W.

And they gathered,
cajoled and old.
Time Witches and Demons,
atop Lairds Knoll.

A flame they set,
upon kindle dried,
to burst forth and jump,
straight for the skies.

The moon ever mournful,
in mysterious size,
slowly and mysteriously,
now on the rise.

They chant and they cry,
listen and pry.
For try as you must,
will understand I surmise.

What witches and demons,
a spell do they brew.
Summon their haunting brothers,
each night anew.

Rhythms and echos,
smiles and screech,
a haunt to us all,
to you they beseach.

Dare that you must,
with each moonrise,
climb to the top,
pray while you spy.

Each night they gather,
withered and new,
Witches and Demons,
await you...............

    his grand intrusion.

    Borrowed faith
    with buried lies
    Steeples crumble
    from the sky.

    by Petal

    Alone I wake,
    Terrified I shake.
    Every noise makes me jump,
    My heart thumps and thumps.
    On my own in the dark,
    But I can still

    We are debris, dead-tossed on brokered wind;
    Upon an ultra-marathon of time,
    Blown back against a rage of souls in sin
    Through

    The Knife and the Devil's Claw



    The anger of a steely knife
    In ambushing surprise
    Cut to the quick the childish heart
    That thought
