Midnight is rising
yr eyes adjusting on a sullen, distant and persistent moon
the shadows are thickets
they swarm with frogs and crickets
droning a collective tone
once you get lost in it
there’s no need for turning back
twilight has pulled you in strong
just like that the weather shifts
and something triggers yr legs to carry on.
Why are you running away over and over again?
Why are you running in place?
Daylight is shining yr retinas are burning burning burning
something is evident
yr legs will carry you on.
The old haunts are real!
Its just a matter of time before they bury you!
