lovecraftian tanka

the surface ripples
tentacles search for fresh prey
hungrily seeking
the promise of a slow death
beneath the inky black waves

—

sitting on the dock
unaware of the danger
dark ones awaken
of ancient rage incarnate
from beyond the stars themselves

—

nyarlathotep
cthulhu and azathoth
lords of destruction
crawling out of the abyss
the end times are here for man

—

terror reigns on earth
the shackles of r’lyeh break
shadows out of time
aeons of colour and shape
the mountains of madness call
