~The Damned Things~
~The Damned Things~
~~~~~~~โ ~~~~~~~
Theย ancient cemetery's loamย now stirred,
โneath stoic silence, something isย amiss.
Sageย raven caws,ย a gaunt and ghastly bird
deserts his post above perdition's bliss.
The moon cast shadows 'cross cold misty ground,
soft luminescence lightsย the ghastly scene.
The dead awakeโsoon fill theย night withย soundโ
discordant dins of death so foul; obscene!
Yet, high atop sepulcher's stout stone walls,
one man of God there perchedโGood Book in tow.
Eyes upturned toward heaven, hoarse voice aย squall;
he cursed the damned things on the ground below.
ย
In morning's mist, the man could notย be found;
ย his burned Bible lie charred on cursed ground.
