“Remnants”
     by Stephanie Smith


He stands amid piles of flesh and bone
A crooked smile sends a chill down a
thousand spines.

His scream is the scythe that cuts through the night
sky. He stretches his arms out wide to tear
down the universe, strangle the stars with
bear claw hands.

Beyond the veil
the bats and the demons
and the dark angels escape to devour
the last remnants of light and day.



“Slumber”
     by Stephanie Smith


In the growing pain
of a blackened night
I wait for slumber
to fill my gut
And you:
to sleep soundly
inside my flesh
waiting for death
and eternal rest



“The Surgeon”
     by Stephanie Smith


slight pressure as
the scalpel slides along the brain

trembles as
it cuts inside

neural pleasures
of a blooming surgeon
searching for a mind to steal

angels fall in his eyes
and watch him slice a life

nervously waiting
for a brain transplant

praying for redemption

True Love
     by Constance Lang


And then she said,
"I will love you forever."
As she tore off
Another piece of his soul
And devoured it
With the sharp fangs
Of her love
