The Jackal

Night unto night and day unto day; what is this entity.... Realizing now when I was but a child and the boogeyman whom would Enter into my dreams and nightmares was no less than that of myself in A future to be borne amid Jekyll and Hydes scenarios and truths; within This battle waged by the flesh upon my spirit to possess, its sacred light.... Cravefuls enemy peering through times window and scratching at tomorrows door!? And I as a frightened child of sort unknowing; to confront its growling pain Until one day my beautiful Father arrived through the pandorians secret passage to say “Be not afraid of the terrors which dwell by night for, I Am forever by your side.” ~ His Glory then thus imparted; I being enlightened became myself bold Towards this perpetual raging storms taunting and wailing cries from outside; ripping These boards from trembling windows as tearing bolts amid screaming doors.... Dashing through times threshold; only to find that the shadow of tomorrows flesh Was nowhere to be found and yet hiding behind the bushes a child; this Hyde?! ============================================================== ....“Knowing, The Jackal” ~
