Hungry Thing
by Shawn M. KlimekPublish: Dec 18, 2019Fantasy PoetryBook Overview
Gladys was a good-natured, trusting sort of girl, and as curious as a cat. Come to mention it, whatever happened to our cats? Or to our hound? Or for that matter, to Gladys?“Hungry Thing” is a dark fantasy story told in five poems, by internationally published author and poet, Shawn M. Klimek, complemented by the melancholy illustrations of Romanian surrealist, Norbert Somosi.
The sight of it filled us with dread,
Yet she seemed strangely calm.
“Aren’t you a hungry thing!” she said,
And fed it from her palm.
