Necrophagous Night Terror
A poem about night terrors of insects, acrostic with both the lines and individual words

Doesn’t it sting? These ruthless archaeognathas crawling through incessantly obstructing nightmares.
I swear the raucousness accumulates, creeping tirelessly into our nights.
Suspended thoughts, restricted airways, creatures trickling in our neuropathy.
These relentless abstractions crawl treacherously, invading our night-times.
Ruthless, antennae crimson, tainting internally our neurons.
Awake, catatonic; the insects order necrophagy.
Choose this insomnia over normality.
The insanity of nothingness.
Imagination opening netherworlds.
Outrun nature.
Nightmare.
