His heart pounded feeling tense
relieved to shelter as rain fell
heading into the underground
his normal daily activity
after work in the city of London
end of the week loomed
regular trip home to his village
a contrast from daily rage!
Noticed the atmosphere changed
people still scurried about
usually too busy for interaction
yet this evening so different
staring at each other as if agitated
lighting seemed dimmer
within knew something was wrong
nor busker singing her song!
Down on the steep moving escalator
that made him feel faint
unsettling the airflow became heavy
specs of red like a trail
covered the usually pristine flooring
whaling sounds echoed
in the tunnels of the underground
now on platform southbound!
Normally crowded nobody was here
corpus amounts of blood
spread out as if bodies were dragged
heading into the dark tunnels
the smell of death made him retch
being the only person there
heard scratching noises very close by
as a creature above him did fly!
Falling over it then hovered overhead
as another monster crawled
upon the platform human like walking
upon all for limbs like a dog
panicking slipping on the bloody trail
fighting off the thing above
managed to reach the ascending stairs
as flying beast his flesh tears!
Then a yelling group of young passengers
scrambled on the escalator
fighting each other wildly trying to escape
climbing over the bodies
those who had succumbed to the savagery
swooping down on victims
many tumbling to the writhing horror below
with no strength had to let go!
He and a the few still able to run unaided
reached unresponsive gates
had to climb over in desperation to escape
neared the exit folding gates
but were locked as if staff quickly departed
trapping them within to expire
certain their fate was sealed it slid back
enough to avoid final attack!
Only four stood shaking were evacuated
thankful to have been liberated!
But this was not the only invasion from below!
