EIDOLON IN THE SHADES (An Original Poetry)

Something's transcended
in the eerie fogginess,
tarpaulining the moon's coruscate
hidden in the shaman's mirror
is a barbarity that reeks monstrosity
a presence with slithering turpitude
hidden to the eye's ignorance
screeching ghostly moans
like the malevolence that haunts
the illumination of the day
and the calmness of the nights

---

Eidolons in the shades
engulfing the atman
like a razing flame
calling in howls and hoots
hollering little whimpers
to hypnotize the reveries
with graceful scenery of sweetness
to inveigle the incubated darkness
hatching the apollyon
and heralding beelzebub's arrival
we're vessels for diabolical entities
like the forest's chi tainted in tenebrosity
birthing us bayonets of nightmares

---

Eidolons prowling in the shadows
xylophones of anomalous tunes
prodding the liver with trepidation
trombones and tribunal
of hysterical things with green eyes
goblins and gnomes a recipe
that makes the half hearted shudder
your consciousness is like a dying candle
that invites frightening things
to gyrate the ancestral melodies
till the soul is lost to wraith's legions

---

Eidolons in the soul's pinnacle
dwelling outsides the priest's diocese
feeding on the feeble and nibbling
like a mad driver
raping a revving accelerator.
the purest of bodies will be ensnared
like a broomsticks for midnight travels
into the cloudy and windy firmaments
where the mind has no faintest knowledge of
eidolons stealing through humanity
till the world is astrayed to live no longer
