All Is Dead

the ebon raven sought the night
in ways only a predator could-
graveyard filled with scenes of
apparitional ghosts, 
all sights were set on the glow
of the violet moon 

unfortunate black feline seeks
its hapless nature, 
forever bound to the dark with
each breath he takes

they glare at each other without 
resistance and in the dead of the
obscurity they see the ill-fated
dilemma...

l o n g i n  g  for each other's 
prey leaves them in fear- 
the violet moon shines...
and
     all is dead in the night
