Beast of Hades Gulch

I wrote this as a scene from a larger body of work that I have been working on for several years. I had this grand scheme of writing a poem for each chapter and then recording an album of all the poetry put to music...like a metal musical of my horror novel...yeah i get a little carried away 

sometimes...It could still happen one day...

Creeping on all fours, a shape-shifted wretch

Clawing the cold earth for feminal scents

Women taste sweeter, their fear is my lust

Hidden by daylight, carnivorous at dusk

Sniffing the night air, her aroma is found

Blood pulse starts racing, hooves crush the ground

Speed accelerating, prey within sight

Swift blow to brain stem, the neck a firm bite

Flesh tastes divine just after the kill

Meat moist and tender, a hunger to fill

Steam slowly rising from fresh, opened skin

Warm blood I’m feeling drip off of my chin

Feasting by twilight, blood tastes like wine

In through the ribcage, consuming like fire

Digesting with passion, eat all but he skin

Wearing my victim, it’s warm from within
