Dark Night Covers Up Crime

Darkness of night smiles, not fully understanding scenario However, noting that it is instrumental that she keeps things hidden. Reflecting neon meterorite glows, outshining a moon who is edging away. Stars are in hiding, not showing themselves at all on this ominous evening. Pink neon sneaker lies on her side, covering up crime in gully. Her crisp whiteness would be easily found if detectives knew where to look. They would find the body attached to her, too. The body that is no longer uneasy about her final resting place. Copper cliff edged in neon pink understands that something vile has happened. Unsure what exactly, but sends a neon pink ribbon of curiosity to take a peek. They glow brightly, illuminating the spot, however, disappear by morning. When the sun comes out, and rescuers begin looking in other places.
