The Moose

Moosey is watching.
Lying in wait.
Watching your actions,
Controlling your fate.

Moosey is jury.
Moosey is judge.
Moosey won't argue,
For Moosey won't budge.

Moosey wants darkness.
That is his goal.
If you defy him,
He'll rip out your soul.

Moosey is coming.
That much is clear.
Think he won't find you?
He's already here.

The author's comments:
This poem is based on a picture of a moose I found online. It kind of was gaping/smiling at the camera, and I thought, "This moose deserves a poem." So, here it is.

Thank you, good sir. I'm glad you like my work. "The Most Painful Kind Of Numb" was fun & difficult at the same time, but I agree, Daren is one of the most amazing characters I've written about. He was fun to create ;) can't wait to hear more from YOU, too, Mr. Pelican King!

Hi, Elizabeth! Just wanted to thank you for your awesomely generous comments. I stopped by your account, and am very impressed. (I especially liked "Most Painful Kind of Numb," Daren's the best.) Hope to read more of your stuff soon!

"This moose deserves a poem" = best line ever :) You're really talented, you know that? I read all of your work, and it's great. You should consider self-publishing.
