THE HUNT

 

sex-blood-and-death:

THE HUNT

It first comes slowly
in the dead of night.
Walking on silent feet,
it draws near.
You run faster,
but it speeds up.
You dash into a building,
an empty school.
It soon follows,
bringing with it a silence.
You can feel its presence
as it moves closer.
It follows you
down the deserted hallway.
You check the doors.
You jiggle the knobs.
They’re all locked.
​You turn around
and stand strong.
Darkness falls
to encompass all.

I have seen this depicted in stories. The latest is a television show, The Mist, a mysterious fog that encompasses a town and causes death and destruction. Another manifestation of this phenomenon is fear. It is usually transparent and comes so rapidly that it is inescapable when it arrives. Scary stuff that gets old when you see it too much.

Chilling, just like the graphic.

A perfect thriller-chiller poem. If I was younger and with a wilder imagination I would be shivering in my boots. Now all horror stories seem to be so amusing to me.

"in the dead of night." can be a very scary place. You brought that out perfectly within the lines of this poem.
