Goblin

Goblin

by. Pharos

Scattered across foreboding mountains,

and deepest caverns of old.

Dwells a mischievous and greedy creature,

Awaiting for opportunities to unfold.

A trickster by trade, 

A troublemaker by nature.

Selling its services for alms,

And a servant to many masters.

Be wary to offend such creatures,  

for they fuel their own short tempers.

And might they plan, to dip their cap 

to your blood soaked sweater.

I love how creepy this was, and yet kinda whimsical. Another great piece, and you always seem to find such good words.

I really like this poem! I'm pleased with the bouncy and flowing lines and it tells a great little story. Well done!

Really enjoyed this poem, it is elegant but also a little scary. I imagined the goblin as someone to be feared. Are they truly a troublemaker by nature or are they just surviving by doing the evil bidding of others?

Truly their nature are shrouded in mystery, I am glad you enjoyed this short piece thank you!
