Haunted

But see, amid the mimic rout
  A crawling shape intrude!
A blood-red thing that writhes from out
  The scenic solitude!
It writhes!- it writhes!- with mortal pangs
  The mimes become its food,
And seraphs sob at vermin fangs
  In human gore imbued.

—From “The Conqueror Worm”, Edgar Allan Poe
