tired of being appetizers
the townsfolk start a fire
light up the night
melt everything nearby
they thought the nightmare was over
they thought the threat had past
that small bit of closure didn't last
because it came back
year after year
so every winter since
the towns residents
stay huddled around their fireplace and furnace
anything below freezing
gives it a reason
to wander into populated areas for a feeding
It will outlive us all, if it doesn't eat us first
