PIONEER POEM: NIGH ON OCTOBER

Rooms with locked windows
Tombs for the undead
Rats flee scurrying
Cats hide in waiting
Bell tolls in the wind
Hell waits on the doomed
Screaming in the night
Teeming black waters
Full moon’s graveyard shine
Pull demons from earth
Tombs for the undead
Rooms with locked windows
