Beast Part II

what does nigh mean?
it means all the evil of your dreams
are here
my dear
every twisted plot combined
every wicked sign
every luscious
gasp come together in broken bliss
nigh is now
a furrowed brow
a purse of lip
a time slip
a narrow stare
and a furious glare
for nigh is here
this year
this day
as hells hounds bay
for us
just us.
