Demons

Artist – Shalvi Singh

B E W A R E of the demons 

in dark aisles, 

for they may corrupt your

undone minds,

is what my mother  

would say

before i set sail.  

but mama, i think 

you forgot to add, that

the

monsters dressed in 

h o l i e s t guise, often

posing as an ally,

would 

wreak the HAVOC 

of worst kind,  

and 

r e l i s h on my insides. 

#1 thing I wish my mother didn’t forget to tell.
