Ode to the helpless

Ode to the helpless

A Poem by Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot
"

I've been seeing all these crime shows and... well this is what came out. Enjoy!

"
The darkness of the earth swallows us each
As we scream and claw, we hear mocking laughter
Later the monster will give a well rehearsed speech
Then he'll just be turned loose after

The worms eat into our corpse as we sleep
He's sitting in a hotel in Vegas, preying on another soul
Slowly and surely to the helpless being he creeps
Later, he throws her in a far off hole

Our flesh is slowly decaying as we dream
He finally gets a taste of his own game
Now nothing is as it seems
Another killer put to shame

'Twas my pleasure...
I really really enjoyed this. The style is one that's older and less used anymore and it adds to the authenticity of the uniqueness in my opinion. Well done
