Hiding the Flashlight

I walk in darkness

monsters follow in my train

horrors tread on every side

I care not that these beasts

these horrid things and I, are one

cannot see their slavering jaws

cannot see their bloody fangs

cannot see their festering sores

I have hidden the flashlight

to not see the horrors they are

feel only their hands

urging me on
