The thunder calls
to it
or it
calls the thunder.
Lightning blinds and falls
ready to tear us
asunder.
The lurking fear is
here.

It makes not a sound,
as it moves
near.
Its path is clear,
All about the hunt
Now.
Another victim, Another meal.

From beneath you it devours.
Ground ruptures,
Air turns sour.
It starves.
Motivated by primal hunger
It feeds on all
of you.
You
give it power.

Stand above
a thin barrier,
The only thing between you
and hidden danger.
Buried labyrinth of monstrosity stranger
than devils and demons
known to man.

Fear not death,
But insanity.
It’ll strip you of
your humanity
and
make
you
hunger.
