The Curse

By R. Cary

You can’t escape it

Graved into you

By Satan’s Tail

Scratching,

Engraving,

Further it feels

Beneath your skin

Beyond your soul

Carved into you

Many years

Before;

You felt its tip

Just a scratch

Eating at you

You can’t let go

You seek it

Only more

You seek it;

Before it’s too late

The devil will wait

With just a scratch

He took your human soul

End

The Curse
