Collecting Lovecraft

by Brian S. Lingard

It started out simply enough.
A hammer, a chisel,
A chip from the headstone.

A splinter of wood
From the Shunned House
And 121 Angel Street.

Of course, all the Arkham House
Editions, and yes, all the videos,
Comics, and role playing games.

But the greatest prize of all
Resting upon the mantel,
The fleshless, bony skull
Grinning sardonically.
