"ONE DARK NIGHT"vol.2

She walk's slowly down a poorly lit hallway, her bloodied footprint's follow.Her blade still in her hand, finger's caked with her dead lover's blood.Ancestor's stare blindly from old gothic portrait's that hang's from the cool granite wall.She hear's a child's footsteps running down the stained oak staircase.Her heart beating, can almost be seen visually from her still nude chest.Terrible sound's as if from some wild beast can be heard through an open window at the top of the stairway.She hear's a heavy knock on her front door.Mommy someone's at the door her child yell's from the bottom of the step's.The frightened mother quietly whisper's to herself, what have I done, please forgive me, as she take's her own life.Mommy! the small child scream's after she heard the loud thud from upstairs.She receive's no answer as the door knocked again.The child enveloped in fear, afraid and alone begin's slowly up the stairway, one step at a time.Blood now working it's way down like a crimson waterfall.The door knocking again make's the child slip startling her, she grab's at the next step only to grab handful's of her mother's blood she cries as the door is opened with tremendous force.Her little leg's strong with emotion carry her the rest of the way.She see's her mother now throat gaping from the self inflicted wound and scream's.She hear's large footstep's making their way through her home.Crying from the sight of her mother, she hide's in a small closet thats filled with musty old clothes. to be continued...

Favorite Poets: I have many favorite poets but I like Poe the most.I would also feel wrong if I didn't include music to this also, for I find it to be of great inspiration.These are lyrics to a song by Monster Magnet called Ozium, it never fails to put me in the writing mood and thought I would share it, lol., " I'm up to my brain in the mire of an ancient swamp, Pteranadon smiles at me and flies up to god, Baby let me drink deep from your globes of reality, Writhe your naked ass to the mindless groove, baby give your tongue a taste and follow me up to my room, the bullgod has your head, and baby thats just fine, now it is time, we became the mighty cell, wrap those hungry jacks? to the mindless groove, they say we've got a lifetime, but we know that ain't true, I will not be denied, I will not be denied, baby, the faster you gyrate the faster we'll be there, arms up overhead, a goddess in the ancient song, work that mighty world to the mindless groove, they say weve got a life time but we know that ain't true, I will not be denied, I will not be denied, they say weve got a lifetime, but we know that ain't true, I will not be denied I will not be denied"

You have created a thrilling story with your wonderful and vivid imagination. I give it four stars. Just a few small problems: 1. threw (as in threw the ball) should be through (as in through the window) 2. site (as in an excavation site) should be sight (as in eye sight) remember to use a space between a comma and the following word. true for periods as well. with these corrections, I would give it five stars. Always, Cat
