Analysis of NEFARIOUS CREATURES

Nefarious creatures are slinking
Around your house at twilight,
Hoping to find an entranceway
To hunt inside this night.

Malignant beings are lurking
Just outside your bedroom door,
Horrors from a Lovecraftian dream
The like of which, you never saw.

Monsters from a nether realm
Exploring throughout your house,
Deadly as any wounded mongrel
Much quieter than a rabid mouse.

Hunting after darkfall descends
Loathsome things hunt this town,
Winged reptiles haunt the skies
Burrowers tunnelling underground.

Malevolent life forms lumbering
Through the pitch-black alleyways,
Pursuing every living creature
Hoping to feed before the break of day.

Nefarious creatures are slinking
Around this doom-curse place,
Primordial animals lost in time
Abominations from deep outer space.

Iniquitous alien creatures lurk
Just outside your night-time abode,
Wailing awful songs of doom
Like some horrid, evil ode.

As you're lying safe inside
And in your innocence, you slumber,
Leviathan creatures lurk outside
And round your house, they lumber.
