Banshee Quotes

“The Chattering Season by Stewart Stafford

Hear a fearsome banshee's wail,
From a dank bog or Celtic dale,
Like the pulling of the rat's tail,
In the whistle of a thrashing gale.

In this skittish son of Mc's room,
A death knell tolls out his doom,
A cursed shadow now does loom,
Her spirit bride's unwilling groom.

The stark evening's grim messenger,
She's a maelstrom's fatal passenger,
Howls from last breath's harbinger,
No dowry for this eternal dowager.

“I am a monster, yes. But I’m the monster who would tear the world apart to save her family and friends. A monster who found her way back, who learned to tame the wildness.”
