JASON |
Jason was a statue of a man Cut from stone with imperfections Jaw bulging while he smiles Feet creep softly on floor tiles As he makes his way to paradise Found at the edge of his room He creeps between the sheets Trying to avoid the scare He could cause to his wife |
Jason falls asleep As his wife begins to wake In anticipation Of the dreams that will wake Her husband from his time Of sleepless slumber |
Jason's in a room with no furnishings Small hole in the ceiling He feels his feet bleeding He feels the creeps crawling The stinging of sharp incisors From insects, from creatures Obscene pain with no release The bugs feel no remorse |
Jason's eyes fling upward Wary of the gap in the roof Last night something came to visit Would it be the same tonight The dread begins to build The sweat is puddling fast The bugs begin to slide Losing their grip on the clothes As Jason loses grip on reality Loses grip on his bowels |
Jason's wife is ill-prepared For the emptying of anus It's happened twice before But not in quite some time What can she do But wait for the awakening She touches his head So slick with sweat It won't be long before he wakes |
Jason saw the monstrous face Followed by demonic body And the scream stuck in his saliva Which was draining down his throat The thought of carnage coming Brought vomit to his lips The beastly thing before him Unclasped hinged jaw Spikes protruding from scarred fingers Bones crackled in its teeth As its silent screams Brought terror to his sheen The mammoth torso reeked of ashen flesh Reflected in its blood-red eyes |
Jason screamed Lying in bed Jason screamed And wished he were dead His wife stood back Avoiding the attack He'd suffer through LIke he'd suffered Many times before |
Jason's breath was wasted On a yell no one would hear The demonic masterpiece Looked down on him, no pity The scorched breath penetrated Leaving invisible marks Across Jason's skin The puddle of urine and sweat Was overpowered by the pungent aroma Of everything this thing had destroyed As the blood dripped to the ground From its mighty jaw Its massive, carnivorous teeth He refused to bleed Reached deep into his mind And made it disappear Everything's clear |
Jason woke with a start Told his love it was all over now She helped him to the shower Helped him out of soiled robes And knew it would stay away this time Hoping it would stay away this time |
Jason emerged, cleaner than he'd been In quite some time Returned to his room Completely in the nude Completely unprotected What did he see His wife waiting for him Sleeping on the bed |
Jason moved to her And on closer inspection Found that she was dead He turned his head To where he'd been in dreams To see the hideous beast It wasn't there |
Jason examined his love for wounds None seemed obvious He'd heard no screams of pain or horror So what had killed her He had no explanation |
Jason wouldn't sleep that night Or any night for quite some time Just when he thought he was safe Something had replaced the horror His nightmares were different now |
Jason stood on the roof Staring through a hole Gazing at what lay below A woman bound and gagged Looking lost and dazed He recognized the face But couldn't place it The wife who'd left him behind |
Jason suddenly lost control Dove onto the floor below Blood dripped from his clenched jaw Thorns ripped through his massive hands He didn't feel like himself now He gazed into his wife's surprised eyes Covered his when he saw the reflection He'd turned into the awfulness He'd run so hard to avoid His wife was crying now Trying to say some desperate message But all he heard were alien sounds His ears refused to comprehend As she refused to bleed |
Jason bit deep and hard Blood spurted from newly opened vein This grisly scene would have no match As his wife could not retract Bit by bit, gnashed to pieces Wife's screams only building louder Until finally, ultimately, muted |
Jason lies on the floor And his wife's eyes are dry now She's cried all she can But she still sees The pieces of a man she loved |
Jason's dreams ended months later Years of therapy ahead And his wife, still dead He thinks it's joy that killed He thinks she knew the dreams were over She'd have her husband back |
Jason's wife had been gone ten years When suddenly she reappears At his new home's door He invites her in, but still confused She removes her coat and shoes And says he's coming home |
Jason couldn't understand That she'd always had this planned The gun was hidden in her jeans The bullet avoided all careens Landed squarely, softly, in his throat |
Jason was thrown from the boat She hoped that he would not float She'd suffered through the beatings She'd suffered through the misery The death she faked so long ago Easy to do on a TV show But this is life |
Jason's wife fought her demons As she watched him hide from his Only one victorious Only one left grinning She moved to a nicer life Forgot she'd ever been Jason's wife Made her money telling his nightmare In many different forms |
Jason was left below the ground To rot wherever he was found He had seemed so peaceful But everyone knew the secrets That he'd tried to hide Just one day too long |
Jason's living in his dream now Constantly in fear of demons Over and over, it happens again Each days ends with him being eaten |
Jason learned That dreams can come true And wishes can come back to haunt you |
