Creature Comforts

Prime evils,
Crafted in the crucible,
Monstrously beautiful,
Comfortably unusual,
Taught from empathetic needs,
Torn from sympathetic deeds,
Forged from flame this physical fiend,
Formed these telepathic beings.

Prepared patricide,
Baring tooth and claws,
Clad in scales and spikes,
Sharp impartial jaws,
The legion grows in numbers,
Shriveled husks of men,
Each generation,
Purpose-built,
Died time and time again.

Mental mitosis,
My own corrupt creations,
These creatures stumbled awkwardly,
Caught constantly mocking me,
Evolving tribulations,
Constructs that weren't built to bleed,
They replicate with such a speed,
Envy, anger, sorrow, greed,
The offspring are a different breed.

Duplicate eyes,
Through the windows of a nine to five,
The reflection is reflecting something sleep deprived,
The infestation isn't something simply exorcised,
It took time to try but then they had organized,
One by one,
To and fro,
Custom by design,
Methodical monsters marching,
Built for Sieging different lines.


(if i could draw there would be a picture of a brain, with a bunch of tubes which come out of the brain into different colored monsters)
