Darkness Reigns

Darkness Reigns The dark has settled and I am at my height of delicious evil as I rage through the Earth this night. A basement of torture in the East, where I relish the lash, in the market of children lost and hurting, where I laugh loudly, at the deviant exchange of cold hard cash. Beautiful bombs are made in a pristine warehouse in the West and the promise of murder of the masses, perhaps I love this the best. How I recharge and strengthen in power, When the axis of evil, in the North and the South crawls and turns on and on every hour. Every second, every minute, every day killing and cruelty in every way. And I walk sometimes slowly and silently with hooded disguise or join with the normal who walk with closed eyes. Step by step I’ve been here before, thousands of years through terror and chains, holocausts and genocide, I know my way, Give the greedy their chance, the murderous a place to play The sinister and shameful running to meet me, and meet their clay, For all will be earth and cloying dark, some time And I will cloister the cold, welcome the heat and wait, in evil sublime. 3/5/21 Sponsor Funom Makama.

Thank you funom, i appreciate the placement win and where it comes from i do not know. I literally chose the title and away it all came. I dont usually do horror, and if i do a little dark it is usually with a touch of humour, so thank you again. love and peace janine lever
