The time has come for you to be
Devoured in the dark of night
You never hear the mortal threat
The talons aimed in silent flight.
His wings enfold all dark shadow
In evil crannies of your mind
The beak cracks through the cranium
Leaving virulent, moldy rind.
Deep wells of darkness are his eyes
Charred windows to the inky soul
No warmth in his night wings' embrace
It brings but death's bone-numbing cold.
Even the kindest, warmest thoughts
Are mutilated and defiled
Pulled from discarded, rotting flesh,
They turn to putrid, icy bile.
He sucks out every flash of thought
Deep within your mortal head
For his soul of pitch to digest
'Till everything you were is dead.
Rancid bits of your twisted soul
Like blackest tar ooze through his gut
As silent wings beat night to death;
Wicked owl sated by his glut.
