Challenge
Scariest poem you can come up with.
Poetic horror. Any style welcome.
What is scary to you?
Do I really care?
Scary might be a body turned blue
Covered in feline hair.
But maybe what scares you most,
is something out of you hand,
your son's corpse splayed out on a wooden post,
or a bandstand without a band?
For me, though, that's nothing,
my demon's deeper down,
for every time I see my face,
I force myself to drown.
I haven't been successful yet,
much to everyone's dismay,
alas, I failed to kills myself,
and the real fear sets it: I must stay.
