Carnivorous

By SilentStalker

Evil I am... Evil I be
As I pounce on my victim from my home in the tree
He dies in an instant, and I feast hungrily
Till there is not a morsel left for any to see

In the times of the ancients, I was cast away
Not able to survive in the light of day
So I wait till night, and till night I stay
Then I search for a fellow who was led astray

Just as I leave, someone walks by my home
She's a tad bit unwary, and she's all alone
I catch and impale her, and she lets out a groan
Then I feast on the corpse, leaving only the bone

Holy water will not harm me; the cross just as well
For I'm not a form of Satan nor a beast from Hell
I'm an entity hungry for the flesh I smell
And how I remove it no victim lives to tell

My teeth are like razors, cutting my prey in two
And to me, blood is blood, whether old or new
Most know to use caution when passing through
So be warned, silly mortal, I'm waiting for you
