PATIENTLY WAITING





PATIENTLY WAITING



Darkness laced monsters and creatures and things hide in the shadows this time of the year.

They are saving their energy for the scary night which belongs to them, and theirs.

That bump in the night that comes from your attic or your basement or your walls?

That is them waiting through the 91 days to All Hallows Eve -- a Halloween fright night!

EYE STRESS



(A Bit Of Horrorwalker World Non-Fiction!)





EYE STRESS

I paid a visit to my eye doctor about three hours ago.
She filled my eyes with various types of profoundly blurring drops for various test results.
My eyes are still so blurry that I am now looking at two screens as I type this piece.
Stressing out over my slowly degenerating eyes is my horror for this day.

CRUSHED




CRUSHED


A purple flower sang a beautiful song to the sun shining upon its accepting petals.
The wild flower opened its face wide to the gentles stroking of the midday sun.
A poet with half a will to express sublime beauty would die to cultivate this moment.
And he would cry as the bulldozer's scoop scraped away the beautiful scene for... progress!

CUDDLY PUPPIES



 CUDDLY PUPPIES

Holy Shit, goddamn it... where are my neighbors when I need serious help!
I'm out here just jogging around the block and minding my own fucking business.
Chuck's, my idiot next door neighbor, three vicious Pit Bulls have escaped again!
They have chased my up this flimsy Sycamore tree... and this goddamn branch is cracking!

TO YOU, LITTLE MADISON




TO YOU, LITTLE MADISON

Well little Madison, in these end times, living is a young woman's game.
I'm old enough to have heard the first of the Russian Atomic Bombs crushing the East Coast.
The earth shook with the force, the radiation burned all the men and death gleefully came calling.
And in the remains of the aftermath, young ladies like you have inherited the greatest game... life.

MIDNIGHT BLACK





MIDNIGHT BLACK

Chance Marshall just woke up in the dark, itching like mad and obviously nude!
He jumped up to his bare feet, brushing his skin with his hands, while wondering what was going on!
As his eyes adjusted to the darkness, it became clear that he was outside in the weeds by the river!
The biting ants covering his own body had spilled over from the dead bodies splayed around his feet!

WITNESS FOR THE EXECUTION




WITNESS FOR THE EXECUTION

I get no pleasure sitting as a witness for botched executions.
The state of Arizona has appointed me that ghoulish job.
It is too bad my crazy ass Governor is a barbaric, respect-less bitch...
I believe she feeds upon the blackened souls of the disrespected executed damned!

BACK FROM THE DEAD





I thought I was dreaming when she first visited me in the darkest minute of that night.
She whispered in my ear, "Robert, your sweet Anne has returned from death for you."
"I told you before I died," she continued. "That not even cancer could tear me away from you."
Be she real, or be she a ghost, my Anne is back for my love... stronger than lung cancer!

THE COLOR OF MY SKIN


THE COLOR OF MY SKIN



I have seen the future of this place and it is as coal black as my Geechy skin!
My place of birth is the almost out-of-reach hinterland of old Fripp Island, S.C!
Here, at the virtual end of the North American world as we here know it...
When the weaponized zombies, dead and alive, come for us... they can't see me in the night!

I JUST HEARD IT ON THE NEWS




This fact about present day black Southern life is a sorry one in this horror world!
There is no longer a separation between the innocent and the depraved!
Monsters possessing heavy weaponry live among us and feed upon upon our tainted blood!
The horror show that is Florida law enforcement is saturated with KKK membership!

FROM RUSSIA, A MISSILE!



FROM RUSSIA, A MISSILE!



A missile is fired into the air by soviet forces known to indiscriminately shoot down airplanes!
It matters not that the passengers may be innocent men, women and children, not of war!
These men are savage ghouls who feed upon the dead who they killed when they were alive!
There are, perhaps, some evil places even a supernatural Horrorwalker will not tread!

HUMAN ANIMALS AT WAR





 HUMAN ANIMALS AT WAR


When humans war against each other their animal primate takes over like thrashing apes.
They go for the throat, they go for the eyes, they go for the gentiles -- they become animals!
They shoot each other by ground... they shoot each other by air -- passenger flights be damned!
In this, the reality world, the monsters are indeed the humans... the hunters, not the hunted!

THE FIRST TIME







THE FIRST TIME



A dark and evil vampire bit into its first pulsing artery! 

It relished the ecstatic rush of blood into its mouth.

This is a new vampire -- freshly risen, feral and evil filled! 

It mattered nil to her as she just killed her own mother!

THERE IS NO BACKDOOR TO HEAVEN




THERE IS NO BACKDOOR TO HEAVEN

Suicide is the coward's way out!
You were always a weak bastard, John Connors!
And now you have intentionally crossed over to the other side as a coward...
And now, the true horror of your miserable metaphysical afterlife begins -- in hell!

WAR

Sally Martin has possessed, since birth, the psychic ability to see into the supernatural ether surrounding all human civilization. Confused, and frightened, as a child... Sally eventually came to embrace her ability, not as a curse from god, as her mother tried to convince her it was, but as a mutation of brain science that gives her "The Sight!"

In order to keep the peace with mother, Sally avoids the topics of religion and her ability. But mother is now old and sick, and so... one last time... Sally agreed to go to church with her.

And here it is, like every time she was taken to church by mother as a child, bloodless supernatural warfare raging through the church as angels and demons punch and claw and wrestle and kill each other... right there among the unsuspecting congregation.

Oh, these people believe in their religion. They are fanatical Pentecostal Fundamentalist who are completely devoted to their causes. What would they say if Sally told them the subjects of their derision were real? Who knows what they might do.

And so, Sally will sit here until the service is done. This is the last time she will observe this WAR in this church. She is not interested in this WAR. Her focus is on the battle between the demon and the angel fighting for her mother's soul. So far, the battle is an evenly matched contest. But, Sally knows, one day one of these combatants will prevail... and mom's soul will go to the victor.

WAR is hell, or heaven!

WAR

Sally Martin sat in the church pew, unmoving and focused on the battle raging around her body.
Her mother finally convinced her to come back to church after a twenty year hiatus.
Even though Sally has implored her mother to realize that religion is the biggest scam on earth,
She still "sees" the raging battle between demons and angels intermingling with the congregation!

DOGS OFF THEIR CHAINS

a horrorwalker travel guide tale:




DOGS OFF THEIR CHAINS
(Montgomery, Alabama)


I looked in the mirror again this morning.
The face looking back at me had been abused by last night's wild activities.
I was attacked by a roving pack of wild dogs as I roamed the feral forest out back.
Why do dogs hate Werewolves so?

The lanes in the road of life are navigated by a myriad of different types of travelers.

Some travel toward the horror in a Horrorwalker world... some walk away.
Adventurous travelers always trek toward... THE FOURTH LINE OF HORROR!

FLICKERING SOULS





FLICKERING SOULS
Southport, N.C.


The Fire Flies are lighting the landscape of the graveyard like tiny flickering glowing lanterns.
Japanese mythology says Japanese Lightening Bugs are the rising souls of the dead.
Several of these Lightening Bugs are lingering around the grave of my departed brother.
If I capture one of them will I be able to bring a piece of my brother’s soul home with me?

WHAT THE ELDERS SAID





WHAT THE ELDERS SAID

The old timers say their bones ache when bad weather is coming over the horizon.
Not many decades ago, it was normal to dig Sassafras Roots for a strong medicinal potion.
The old timers also used to use pure sulfur to remedy their itchy skin issues.
And, they say hanging garlic around the outside of your house still wards off the Vampires!

I KNEW BETTER BUT COULD NOT HELP MYSELF




I KNEW BETTER BUT COULD NOT HELP MYSELF

I could hear the outside cat calls of sarcasm through the ears inside my mind!
It was the white people plus horror caveat of, "Why are you walking toward the horror?
The punch line is, "Black people would never run toward the monster groaning inside the room!"
Yea? Then why is this black girl's right hand opening this door at the end of this dark hallway?

DRINKING IN A DARK CORNER







DRINKING IN A DARK CORNER


My throat cancer returned two months resulting in my doctor immediately recommending surgery.
I am now voiceless and weak as I recover from the painful Cordectomy surgery.
My nurse has treated me fairly... even though I cannot talk... even though I fear her.
I've covertly seen her bare inches long fangs to secretly feed from blood transfusion bags!

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORM

The Wilmington, North Carolina atmosphere just turned midnight eerie and ghastly quiet.
The hard core winds, and the battering rains, of the hurricane abruptly just dried-up.
My young friends in the other room, cheering happily, are declaring, "It is over!"
I know better... this is the calm eye of the storm... the true horror will come five minutes!

FLUSHED OUT






FLUSHED OUT

The persistent vengeance seeking villagers have flushed me out of my deep cave lair.
With pitchforks sharpened, torches hot as hell fire and crosses blessed by clergy,
They have trapped me between themselves and the small creek I cannot cross.
I wonder, how many of them can I eat before they drive a stake through my heart?

Dear diary, let me declare to myself that the society destroying Zombie Apocalypse sucks.
All my friends are dead or overtaken by the mysterious force that turns them.

My mother always filled my Valproic Acid prescription... and I still cannot find any!

DRAGON SPLATTER


'Twas me, my Lord, your vanguard knight Seth who saved you from the fiery dragon's breath.
I declare to thee, 'twas my sword indeed that did strike the final death blow to its heart!
You must now strike me dead 'cause I am now infected by splattered dragon blood.
I willingly give my life for your's, my Lord, with the blessing to... kill more dragon beasts!
