Tic Tac Toe
Rasping gratinglizards tongue
monkeys screaming
the skies undone
snakes slither
spiders creep
into the darkness
where fairies sleep
goblins jumping
cackle and spit
vultures chewing
on the days salty grit
old friends whisper
take the knife
pierce the envelope
of the stale dank night
choke on bile
as life drowns in
insects crawling
beneath tarnished skin
the rats are feeding
they know you're alone
playing Tic Tac Toe
with the Devil's bones.
