The esscense of nature

The creature rose up from the ground,

and glared at all the people.

there was no peace within the town

as the monster ate the steeple.

Up from the ocean, through the sea,

more creatures began to rise,

with massive seething rage let loose,

and anger in their eyes.

To march upon the land again, 

to eat and reap the town,

the monsters writhed in morning air.
with evil, ravenous sound.
Then when the town was shredded to
the barest bones of  structure,
the beasts climbed back into their deep
black Continental rupture.
