The Hofakryn - (C) 2017 - Richard Leon Jones

in poetry •  7 years ago 

Beware my child the Hofakryn
A beast more foul there has never been
It dines on children who commit sin
leaves no trace and is never seen
lurks in shadows and dark spaces
taking victims on which to feed
Watching the terror on their faces
consuming them while for mercy they plead

Fear my child the Hofakryn
Touch not its razor skin
Claws all four they hold as a vice
Breath so cold your blood turns to ice
Hiding behind a toothy grin
Lies the horror that is the Hofakryn

So, before you lie, cheat or steal to win
Remember my child
Beware the Hofakryn
