     Typemare


Weaving stories in my mind
     Of darkness, evil, deeds unkind,
Demons stomping through the Earth,
     Laughing in a soulless mirth.
Creatures from the id, it seems,     
     Escape without the aid of dreams.
Or have they just become so bold
     They slip from out subconscious hold?


What if the words I sometimes write
     Were mystic runes instead of type,
And I called into this life
     A thing of dour relentless strife?
A beast of old and fiendish ways
     Who will haunt me all my days,
Steal my soul and bend my will
     So I will scream and stalk and kill!


Telling tales I hold too dear,
     And my most horrific fear
Is I'll submerge into my work;
     Reality will fade to murk.
Against insanity, I pray,
     To exorcise these ghosts away.
That all such monstrous ilk be pent
     Imprisoned in a page of print.

Welcome to Lit

With your first submits;

Not a bad first try

With the world of rhyme

(Which is always a tough write to pull off, without seeming too contrived).
