Dead Poet

The dead poet sits and writes his lines,
with quil and ink made of blood,
he describes every thread of his imagination, vividly, to a point where it becomes reality.

He writes about creatures that haunt the night,

A dark figure closes in, and knocks on the door, asks him to come out before he writes some more

He takes his heavy reapers scythe,
and removes his head clearly of his body,

And on his desk is found, a book of rhyme,
with inside itself, a great poets mind
