Krampus speaks from the Great In-Between.

  . 

Press play and let the emotional music wash over you as you read. 

Salute. 


Love and loneliness 

Unspoken dreams of romance and broken hearts 


Shall have no reunion 

But instead


Like fettered beasts to the slaughter-house

They will stare foolishly into the distance 


As they are abandoned 

Pleading for hope and a new companion 


For deaden souls deserve no salvation

Such is my curse of the Dammed 


Running or walking throughout every living nation 

Men or women


Especially now

On social media 


Trolls like me

Swimming naked in pools of hate and judgement 


We shall become as one


As they hear my approaching bells

Under the gaze of my cosmic gun


Love and loneliness

Sadness and pain


Will be their everlasting daylight

In their souls window panes


My silver mistress 

Mother Moon


Will seal their fate 

On each twenty-fifth 


When my blackened presents are received


For the spiteful and jealous


The hateful and cruel 

Who just love to deceive


You better pray to change your ways 

Before every Christmas Eve
