Specters Flight
Specters cursed to roam the night
With wings unfurled
Taking flight
Haunting of a sweetened dream
Turning all
To hellish scream
Going forth in surges
Of blood
Tombs have opened
Pushing away
Mud
Howling
Prowling
Till first light
Prayers are heard
Beseeching safety
On this night
Erase the fears
Of the
Specters flight
Style / type:
Free verse
Review Request (Intensity):
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Last few words:
Seems to me there should be more to this . Any suggestions?

Dear Chrys,
Wow! Very good!
Going forth in surges
Of blood
Tombs have opened
Pushing away
Mud
I know this dream too well.
always, Cat
