Blank Journal

On Halo’s eve ,rests my journal under the moonlight 

The crows and  bats croaking in their flight 

Switching on the lamp , to fill my blank journal in light

As I ruffle through its blank pages with a memory in fright 

The empty journal was not so empty any more 

The first page filled with a ivory fang of a carnivore

Next was a squashed eyeball bleeding hard-core

Another was a forced cut finger with an appearance to abhor

Who is the one , who could do such a outrageous thing 

Is it just a childish prank or something supernatural i think 

Out the window , not much afar , a tombstone , is it its doing ?

I hear footsteps not too far , its probably its doing , just an inkling 

I want to meet this fellow who’s been fixating his eyes on me all this time

The footsteps , the journal gave it , and the pungent smell of bitter lime 

Peeking from the window , I caught his gaze with bloodshot eyes 

For another day to tell the continued tale of these enigmatic crimes

yes, it is colorful in its imagery....and on a level I relate.
Most of the time I don't feel like I am the one writing my poems.
It is like they are being written by something or someone else...
maybe we become someone else when we write them.

I like the idea of titling the poems the Blank Journal poem series. Series are fun. Your poem was fun and spooky.. I have a series I call Adventures with John in his Red Ford Truck. It tells stories of fun nature drives that my boyfriend and I take.
