Shadow

Don't think the shadow is empty,
or that it's just a shell.
It is a clever decoy,
Luring us to hell.

Welcome to the new land,
A place to make your stand,
Lost along the way,
The pathway home.

No-one will follow here,
This is a new breed of fear,
Unfamiliar screams,
We hear them come.

Stand up straight and stand up tall,
Face your last chance to fall,
Sometime soon,
Before the dawn of something new.

Hungry Smiling Fish

Barracuda, you have sharp, sharp teeth,
Lurk in murky waters just slightly underneath,
Unsuspecting swimmers' toes,
As you purposely prepare for a phalangee feast.
