Monstrosity

in the graveyard

a full moon light pervades the sky

thusly waking a demonous beast

six feet under encased

to arise from its transient slumber

with senses transcendent

as the smell of human flesh

engulfs its nostrils

an irrepressible fervor within

draws the beast to attack

expeditious pursuance initiates

with a sheer look of horror

this man is frozen solid

his skin pale with white

prognosticating death

the beasts serrated claws

slash into human flesh

tearing him limb from limb

with ease

left at its wretched hinds

a mound of mangled man

a ghastly picture

of what is yet to come

feeling the power of its first kill

its thirst only increases now to extremes

an insatiable hunger

as every mortal it will devour

shall only fuel its strength

onward to murderous conquest

traverse the scented trail

with great haste

through the severely thickened wood

an unsuspecting settlement

of heedless villagers await

a most untimely slaughter

logs of the bonfire

it throws to torch huts

extracting its victims

in an utter flurry of chaos

to lure them out to their death

the thunderous howling

of this beast and dying men

echos in villages afar

unnerving terror resurrect

from temporary slumber

monstrosity
