Something’s not right There’s another inner voice in my head!? I can’t shake this dread That within this snowy serenity lays an ominous portent My family is here: wife, daughter, and newborn son To witness my rest and reflection on what I’ve done Weary and strained I over drank to create self-prescribed silence In this seemingly silent boreal wilderness of the Northwest I’ve been racked by unexplained bouts of a kind of psychosis My attempts to dispel these deranged hallucinations, all useless Sensing my tension, my wife suggested we all take a stroll in the snowfall Snow steadily fell around us as we ventured further into the forest Although my family was with me I felt faraway, lost between the trees Then, I saw it there, in the gloom, concealed behind the conifers Skin pale, eyes glowing blue, gaze fixed on me and my family Paralyzed, I asked my wife, do you trust me? Then please run with me and hide Panting, I nervously started scanning for the approaching monster lit by moonlight Confused, I elucidated to my wife that something was stalking us from a distance And he started crying… Soon they’ll be devoured!!! My son’s wails would give us away They’ll all become the prey!!! My son had to be silenced… so I reached for a stone… I’m sorry… What’ve you done!? She said You’re overwhelmed by this snow-born insanity, it’s made you violent My family is here… wife, daughter, and obedient son Here to witness the reckless actions of what I’ve done… They were tearful and strained, so I shared the same peace bestowed with my son’s silence The cold consumed me and my skin slowly turned to grey I felt my humanity fade away, replaced by a singular philosophy… to feed on flesh!
