Demon

The night hugs you
Prickly and tight

The demon of the
Dark hour
Bleeds black
Lung

A sheer shrill
Echoes
The pulse

Dry eyed
Phantom
Squeezes

A blanket
A sheet
A magazine

Nothing eases
The demon
Of the dark hour

Semen
Phlegm
A hoarse cry

The night emerges
deaf
Silent dawn
Rises

A tick tock
Clock digs
A ditch in
Your skull.
