On a dark, starless night you can feel the creepy things settling into their watching places. They watch all manner of things preparing for the day when they can imitate the living. On a dark, well lit night, you can see the crawly ones scamper from one dark hole to the next. They scurry closer and closer trying to get a sniff of the scent of life and the living. On the night of a full moon you can see the shadows cast by the crooked ones bent like tortured branches. They scratch furtively at your window, trying to touch the warm hand of the living. Just before the break of dawn, the tortured will sink back down to the below from which they came. They sigh longingly, for that which they observe, whimpering pathetically as they turn their backs on the dawn. |
