POV of the Dartmoor convict.


Hunted down


An echoing wail; a haunting cry from a distant tor.

A mournful howl which could chill the blood;

An unearthly sound.

~0~

An unearthly sound; a demon roaming the windswept moor;

I stopped, and I listened, and I understood.

I had heard the hound.

~0~

I had heard the hound; a creature unleashed from the depths of hell;

And I ran, though I feared that I ran in vain.

It had found my trail.

~0~

It had found my trail, and I tried to escape, though I knew full well

It was hard on my heels; as I heard again

An echoing wail.
