Eyes

This is a rondel prime in iambic tetrameter about a creature watching you from the fog. This is a track from a poetry album I released on Bandcamp called Moonlight.

Here is the poem.

The creeping fog -
it fills the night,
And hides from you
its watching eyes.
The noise you heard
in dwindled light -
It sounds to you
like anguished cries.

Your beating heart
and building fright -
It almost hides
what that implies.
The creeping fog -
it fills the night,
And hides from you
its watching eyes.

The tension grows -
your chest so tight,
As growling echoes
through the skies.
Obscured its source,
and all your sight,
You pray your tracks
you can disguise.
The creeping fog -
it fills the night,
And hides from you
its watching eyes.
