Below the Crevices - The Crevices Below

Look below your feet

Look closely at the ground

Someone below is watching

Through the cracks in the stone

Their eyes are following your every move

Your every breath…

These eyes are glowing crimson in the dark

They do not trust those who live above

It is the light that drives them mad

And it’s the darkness that provides solace

They’ve built a vast hall carved out of stone

The sound of hammers ring through the rocky paths

They do not understand the terrors lurking above

They serve a master adorned with the jewels

Carved from the crystals that enrich his kingdom

He sits upon a glittering throne

Below the crevices he rules alone

Nothing can touch him and none can reach him

He is the lord of the subterranean world

He is the master of his cavernous kingdom

And he has numerous minions

Who serve and hunt for their master’s delight

But down below there is scarce food

So they are forced to hunt those who live above
