Not sure what these things are yet, but they'll be showing up in a short story soon!

The Pricklies
Criss Dane



They live between the moments
Where only chaos dwells
They revel in the torments

An afterglow existence
Not ghosts or fairies, something else
They live between the moments

They gorge themselves on innocence
And feed us dreams of distant hells
They revel in the torments

A glimpse of malice, flashing instants
Lingering fear and panic swells
They live between the moments

The tortured mind has no defense
Left cringing in our shells
As they revel in the torments

They shower us with unheard rants
Yet no one ever tells
That they live between the moments
And revel in the torments
