Relished is he who devours the flesh
Beautiful virgin girls enslaved and
prepared to be eaten fresh
Gutted they were by the evil mogul
Such pleasures he meddled with
Took from screaming wenches
Girls of leisure
Girls depraved taken from their
morbid world
Held in captivity by the evil mogul
Under sheets of comfort his jungle
thrived
There you bled in denial
His poison eyes scaring you blind
On your bed the rivers ran red
Creepy sounds kept your face hidden
from view
Such aversion to startled you
Give the monster beneath your
bloodied sheets a new sacrifice
His spooky fingers ran up your spine
Suffocating your empty mind
Creepy creatures there ate your
infected flesh
You tried to scream but only silence
flourished
Obliteration on nights end
That be his descend
Massacred by the bright lights blended
The evil moguls monstrosity fading far
into your nightmarish mind
Trapped in a hail of shallow grime
And there creepy creatures waited
another nights fall

It was an amazing poem using themes that are usually deemed 'untouchable'. A great retelling of nightmares you've had, and I can relate to most of the stuff you penned here, because those things are sometimes in my nightmares too :S
Congratulations and good luck in the contest.
Chin up,

Your past nightmares have given light to wonderful poetry.
