The Adventures Of Pugswallow, Chapter 1

Shattered Window

The image of the shattered stained glass is still...

The darkness comes at dawn

As the daylight burns my eyes,

All colours fade

Bleached away by the harsh sunlight.

Gone is the night,

Which is filled with such depth of light

That all things become visible to me.

In the day my senses tell me little

Of the things my true instincts know,

But when the night comes

We should all be scared.

For what logic denies

And sensibilty discounts

Can no longer be hidden from our eyes.

It is true, and here,

Within.

It calls,

It rises,

And we must submit.

For beast are we all,

Running in the night.

Predator or prey

That is my life

Wow, this was cool.

But I'm dissapointed that it's over already.

Maybe you can write a story for this, you know?

I bet it would be a pretty awesome post-apocalyptic type of tale.

Good Luck and Keep Writing!

This must be a zombie thinga-ma-jig. Don't see the relation to the poem in the title though. Be honest with ya...Zombie's scare me off...stories and poems that is...just not a big fan of that sort of thing. But your poem was well delivered with a sense of eeriness to it. Good job with that.

Bits

Excellent title.

The vampire, or werewolf jumped straight out of the first couple of lines and savaged me.

And I loved it.

Less obscure than some peoms on these pages, and all the better for it.

If I want puzzles and enigmas I I put "puzzles and enigmas" on google and choose my own level of difficulty.

It is heartwarming sometimes to see where a writer came from and where he is going without having to think too deeply about it.

You warmed my heart with this.

(then ripped it out and devoured it I suppose.......)

Don't stop

Kind regards

Imagery

This reads like surreal stuff. Lot of imagery and good imagination put to work. Who is a werewolf - a vampire! Is this darkness at noon. Pretty damn dark!
