The idea for this came from something a "talking" cat said in a YouTube video.

PROWLER
Sara L. Russell 21:02 15/08/2007


I stand in the space
 between darkness and light,
between thinking and doing
 emboldened by hate;
I lurk in the place
 where the soul perceives fright,
a dread demon, persuing
 down hallways of fate.


I see you alone
 with your frozen-wide stare
caught in the thin glow
 of one candle flame;
mere flesh and bone
 and with fright-bristled hair...
I wait at your window,
 I whisper your name.

Scary poem told from the stalker's point of view. It works well and conjures up images from my own nightmares I carred back from Vietnam of imagined eyes out there in the dark watching--always watching and waiting. I imagine these types of night demons feel powerful as they stand in the dark looking into lit rooms thinking that these people are helpless--not knowing that might not be the case.

The dark side has its beauty as well. Superb poetry.

Death's Head by Terry Vinson

They thought the many and varied horrors of war held no more surprises. They were dead wrong.

The Dead Effect by Terry Vinson

Tales of The Zombie or for soap opera fans, perhaps 'Days of The Dead' might be more appropriate.

The Gig by Terry Vinson

Within the infinite blackness of rock 'n roll purgatory, some encores are just the beginning.
