The Keeper's Tale

This knife is cold

This soul is old

This was never gold

But a story is still foretold

The sacrifice happens at midnight's nigh

A tension so thick, no birds fly

The howl echo at the full moon's high

Traversing the brush as there is an echo of an eagle's cry

Blood runs warm and thick

A soothing pitter-patter, dripping off a broken stick

The soul's smile is twisted and thick

Swiping up some blood, they take a lick

A murderous intent, a shiver in the dark

The soul hungers for blood like a shark

They are angered without another sacrifice, much like a spark

Their anger reaches an arc

They kill heedlessly, hungry and mad

On their transparent face, this soul is bad

They are slain, choked just a tad

And forever more, the soul is glad
