The beast

Spirited winds blow 'bout the quiet scene
The old shack sits, just starting to lean

Cold moans and growls echo forth
To meet the cold winds from the north

Inside lays a dying beast
Fallen to anothers feast

Blackened sky and blackened sun
The dyings blood begins to run

It whispers quietly in the dark
For holy angels to gladly hark

Swept forth by fate
a beast of hate

He cackles as he comes
The creature, many souls he numbs

To eat of the soon to be dead
Rejoice in its wounds long bled

    All honesty: this poem would be positively amazing if it didn't rhyme. I'm sorry, maybe it's just me (and, I confess, I am guilty of rhyme when it was neither necessary nor useful), but I think the rhyme here WEAKENS your poem. Nevertheless, I like the image of the neigh-dilapidated shack and the overall idea of the poem.

      haha, well.. this is for an english project-ish thing im working on for school and its more appealing to my teacher if it rhymes, just because he knows next to nothing about everything...
