🖤 Nightmare Poetry — Featured Poets
Our brand new Nightmare Poetry section in Dark Descent has officially begun, and this month’s featured poets were Tina and JB.
Both delivered beautifully unsettling pieces that linger long after the final line. Thank you both for sharing your work with the Dark Descent community.
Now… it’s time to open the door again.

Let’s see what nightmares you’ve written.

Dreams snd Nightmares from Elsewhere
————————————————
In the cavern filled
with murky
stars, a vivid dream
was born, then it darted to the
wall. Bloodied,
it fell off to the
floor.
An immortal god lay
upon a meadow
where a thousand
poppies blushed, and he thought
about the little
holes that tore the
sky apart.
Dusty shadows showered from
a secluded land
beyond the teary
clouds and then danced upon the skin,
seeped into the
eyes, and
wiped away the
imprisoned
dream
slowly
and a
thick layer
of
vines with
veins of loathe
crept upon the
fragile aeons
stuck with
gluey words of
perdition.
