A creature guided by lust desperately craved the rust that resided in humanity's dust.
Through easily gained trust and just comments, along with bulging pockets, it wasn't hard to lure them away.
Their scarlet colored the rooms on forgotten avenues desperate for revenue.
The creature was smart and was careful with its art of fleshy masterpieces, purging society's feces from the shadows of feared gallows, but what coaxed it most was lies and negativity of conspiracy.
Unsuspecting prey was the joy of the game, not realizing their actions were to blame for the beast's fatal visit.
If you've done wrong, prepare to answer to the creature whose slimy appendage will give no mercy to the sinful and bloodthirsty.
