Leviathan wakes

Writing prompt

By Crossroads of inspiration Published 5 years ago 1 min read

Deep pressures is all around.

Keeps its body fully bound.

The mind it does so wander

Far outside the water it does squander

Avoiding the deeps during its travel

Causing many minds to unravel

Dropping sanity into the depths

Where rational thought is out of breath

The eyes that open flash inhumanity

Merely a glimpse of the insanity

Creatures from the depths reawaken

In the minds of those people taken

Prepping for the return

Of vile daemons of much concern

Their rituals of dark design

To raise the aquatic serpentine

Who will try and stop

The agents of such a power swap
