HOH

A Poem by Judas Hammer
"

Trying to sleep as a child can be a full time job.

"

HOH

 

The hounds of hell

Have caught my scent

They have been chasing me

My whole life

In my mind

In my dreams
they breathe on me as I sleep

They growl as I pray

I would rather piss the bed

Than risk an encounter

The hounds of hell have caught my scent

Their mouths are on my neck

I am terrorized

I am nine years and wanted to die......

This made me think of some twisted dreams I had as a child. The worst was a reocurring drean of Satan himself, sitting at his desk with a contract. Bidding me to sign it. I refused everytime. If I signed........would I have become a famous writer, artist? lol This inspired my poem "Death's Momento Mori", check it out sometime. xo

This made the hair on the back on my neck stand up. I feel like I should go check my closet for monsters.

Terrifying. I relate so well to this work because my son around that age told me about the horrific dreams he would have and then was afraid to sleep as well. The dreams he would tell about were so vivid I could see the terror in his eyes. You captured that feeling well.

You want to read this poem quickly to get over the immense terror that over comes you, as you remember all those horrible night mares yourself. Very good!

Very powerful poem. Scary, too.
Only a couple of typos:
"they *breathe* on me as I sleep"
"*than* risk an encounter"

Otherwise a very interesting and unique creation :-)
