Here we go again, another horror poem – you would think I am becoming a pro at it or something.This poem is about rage and to what extent it can actually take hold of someone. People who were once normal, who have been pushed too far can dramatically change by letting evil into their hearts.
I enjoy writing horror as well as horror poetry because the human mind will never cease to be fascinated by the unknown.

Tick Tock
Tick Tock
3 AM
On the clock

Witching hour
Demons power
Raining fire
Evil shower

Playing tricks
The devils lies
Electric waves
Before his eyes

It seeps
It burns
It crawls into his skin
Surrounded by fire
The rage sets in

He picks up a gun
He counts to ten
Insanity filling him
Engulfed by sin

Walking into a school
He lets his bullets do the talking
He would have the last laugh
There would be no more mocking

Taking a deep breath
He counted to three
All the people in his way
Unleashed rage would set them free

Another deep breath
He counted to six
Finger on the trigger
They were snapping like sticks 

Now shouting the words
SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE
The blood was everywhere
It was all so fine

Laughing hysterically
He was now onto ten
Knowing full well
These steps he had taken
Would be repeated again

    Oh, my! You are a pro. This is by far your best effort to date. Horror, yes, but believable, too.

    Intense read and quite graphic image. Love it! Flows perfectly, tight and just a spooky power man possesses. It does seem to get easier after the first one! Great prose Mystify!
