F. Krueger

Freddy

you remind me of Freddy Krueger

with knives that can slash through the ether

a pervasive presence in the mind of a dreamer

always in the run, always in the need to kill

calling off the fresh and young skin

as the days approach to Halloween

little girls are a trigger

but sometimes they are stronger

at avoiding your demoniac ruse or tools

then your boisterous evil zeal collapses

to end a nightmare as eyes open to the majestic sun rising.
