In night there is serenity In night there is obscenities Why can there be these two? There's nothing we can do The night takes on a brand new life different from all other strive In night everything though tranquil tiptoes the robber underfoot though us not knowing. The night takes on eyes of their own millions staring and waiting to devour when you turn your head. Vagabonds begging for your only dime making you want to scream to make them listen and hear you say just let me breath and be me as the darkness ensnares the moon my footsteps walk faster towards my room. I hear the dogs howling, the cats screeching the rats wanting to come above at night chase us all away from this darkness that keeps us behind closed doors. |

There is something going on here besides prehalloween though. It's just a hunch! I liked it! Jeremy "Those little slices of death, how I loathe them." -Edgar Allen Poe |

THX I think it's the on-coming of Autumn when things begin to settle down and it's so nice and calm seemly but is it? The night just takes on a different ambiance. |
