Monsters - Scratch acid

I can see myself helpless

Nailed spread-eagle to the bed

And night creature claws gash at my back

Blood comes steaming, pulsing/repulsing

And I can feel its hungry tongue

And its hot moist red razor lips

Silk cloth deep in my mouth

My screams come out as moans

Come out as moans — come out as moans

I can see gauzy phantoms

And they’re whispering horrible things

Things left better unsaid

Apparitions the dark night brings

Hold me in their sheer arms

And sweat gleams on my trembling back
