Scream

For the "ten words horror story."

The demon slowly ripped him to pieces from inside out.

Author's Note

I like this poem because it doesn't strike me as something physical. It sounds like a personal issue, perhaps anxiety or some internal dilemma. It starts inside, in the chest and in the head, before it begins to show on the body - under our eyes, by the fatigue. Good work. Keep it up.

Thanks for the review, and for reading. Yes, it can have two meanings. One literal - it is just a short horror story. Or metaphorical - it represents the inner world, the tormented self.

I enjoyed the duality of its interpretation. The vision of a physical demon forcing its way to the surface and the image of the internal demon's victory.

I had no duality in mind when writing it, but afterwards the little lightbulb above my head lit up :)
