HELL-HOUND
Deep in the darkest pit
Where anguished screams resound
Evil thoughts feed the it
Fanged, demon like hell-hound
No mercy for those so lost
Only torture to pay the cost
Gnawing on its victims with relish
The monster growls so hellish
Desperate pleas never heard
Too late for any praying word
Looking in deeply is insane
Here, mercy calls always in vain
Dark shadows skirt about
Hell-hound allows no souls out
Fear forces me to not see
That fate once was awaiting me
Distant pits rumble much the same
Death
Final victor in this hellish game

Hell-Hound Allows No Souls Out
Deep in the darkest pit,
where anguished screams resound
Evil thoughts feed the it,
fanged , demonlike hell-hound
No mercy for those so lost,
only torture to pay the cost
Gnawing on its victims with relish,
the monster growls so hellish
Desperate pleas never heard,
too late for any praying word
Looking in deeply is insane,
here, mercy calls always in vain
Dark shadows skirt about,
hellhound allows no souls out
Fear forces me to not see,
that fate once was awaiting me
Distant pits rumble much the same
Death final victor in this hellish game

note -- Edited and shortened poem from a very much longer
