NIGHT TRIP

Why does the world sleep at night,
So peaceful and serene.
I walk with her in the starlight,
Silence, the Demon Queen.

Ever searching a shadowed street,
Behold, if but to share...
Glass slippers for the dancing feet
Of Misery and Despair.

Her melody, a delightful charm,
Wordless, I hum the tune.
The fireflies sound the alarm,
Of tonight's Hunters Moon.

The Fates, by three, taking exception,
Cut short the living thread.
A notion lost to its own inception,
I walk amongst the living, dead.

Where still the world sleeps and sleeps,
Beneath miscreant skies.
Where every light of heaven weeps,
That none herald their cries.

And after-drunkeness of soul
Succeeds the glory of the bowl -
An idle longing night and day
To dream my very life away

Of tonights Hunter Moon.

The night is my world too....I can feel at home in the soft folds of darkness.

Wonderful poem.

Large, very large indeed. I'm in perpetual angst over your incredible word selection. Thanks for the sensation.
