"It Knows"

"It Knows"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr.MD

I

The Howl Just stopped

And replaced by  the eerie Silence

Stuck in the woods at this hour

Sensing something there in the darkness

II

Something walking there

A Werewolf in each hand

Towering above the trees

You pray it does not notice

III

And yet this shadow stops

Sniffing the Air 

"Come out Human!"

"I know you are there."
