The Dark Predator

Yet another Halloween(?) themed poem

In the shadows is where I reside
I am wicked I am vile
This I cannot deny

I have a weakness
For the taste of a child
Be it tall, small or mild

I cannot lie
I cannot die
I cannot blink
My lidless eye
I cannot sing
I cannot drink
I cannot leave
This wicked ring

So if you were to step
Inside my humble abode
Let the darkness swallow you whole
For I am not your savior
I am not your guardian angel
I am the predator
And you, my treat a la mode
