A Soliloquy of Torment

In the dim light of the moon, I awake
A tortured soul
Without a way

Tossed out and abandoned by my faith
I lie in wait
Above Father’s place

I swoop down with my fangs laid bare
“Accept your fate”
“Your final resting place”

The blood of a virgin wafts past me
I spot a habit
And follow her to the parish

A cacophony of screams fills the air
As I rip and tear
While the kids scream and stare

I offer them a new way of life
“Come with me”
“Or die here”

In the harsh light of the day, we sleep
Belly full
Of mead and meat

In the dim light of the moon, we awake
Parched and famished
Heading to another parish
