A/N - This is my entry into the September is literate contest that is hosted by WP_Poetry. In this contest we have to pick book and write a poem about it. I decided to write about This Savage Song and Our Dark Duet both by Victoria Schwab. These two books are my favourite books of all time. To be far I like Our Dark Duet a little bit more then This Savage Song. With this poem I took some inspiration for the poem from This Savage Song.

And now onto my poem

And now onto my poem. I decided to do things a little bit different. Ok, so Wattpad doesn't like my idea. Which was to have two poems within one, but it doesn't like having lager spaces in-between words. So, I am going to bold certain words. After reading the whole poem read just the bolded words. As I want to keep the idea of two poems within one and this is the only way.

Canine teeth
hooked on flesh.
Meat was meat, 
no matter the shape or size.

Subway stations were
painted in shadows.
This was their
dark palace and no creature
would dare enter.

Hissing and in-human
sentences became background music.
Nail scratches became paintings 
And shadows become the walls and floors. 

He watched 
with blood stained eyes.
Always safe 
behind city's lights.

He turned, 
saw how the carpet was drenched 
and walls were repainted in crimson.

"Do you always
have to make
a mess."
He said to the girl 
licking her fingers.

Eyes met his when
as she stepped over the bodies
that look more like worn out rugs
then humans.

"It's less fun, 
if I keep my hands clean."
She replied  

"It won't be long before
this city is ours
and you can have
all the fun you want."

Canine teeth
hook on flesh.

Meat was meat.
