The Dark Star

                             The heavens opened vomiting the dark star.
                             As it approached its realm, its red tail unfurled
                             And it swept the Earth gouging out a black pit.
                             Tittering the edge while my life felt the spikes,
                             I spiraled into the ebony abyss.
                             Above the bustling dragon, daringly
                             And with a hollow laugh, extended its tale.
                             The offer from the darkness clouding the sky,
                             Tore out debris sending rock down on my head.
                             Once dead why die again?  Live in the dark hole
                             And watch as those you care for walk by and look.

                             Its monstrous breath transformed the deep cold pit,
                             The Melting stone formed an encasing cold tomb
                             As the evening chill turned the molten rock cold,
                             Entrapping my soul eternally in stone.
                             The cavern of doom now housed an entrenched fool
                             With his head buried deep with nothing to see.
                             The deadly beast boasted through its fiery snout
                             While chuckling at the soul it tormented cold.
                             A life never owned now hidden in a cave,
                             Living the death sentence of the dragon’s blaze,
                             The eternal taunting of heavens’ dark star.
