This is my first attempt at tail-rhyme!

A meek Monet, a gentle Van Gogh I may seem too nice and mild, though The moon knows my true name In lust I ascend to claim my prey Goblins to gobble, dragons to slay New blood to tempt my game I brand the highest spruce with my mark I am as white as the night is dark Silent, floating prowl As encroaching dawn takes starlight's place Revealed beneath my human face Soul of snowy owl. 1/8/19

I had to FAV this one. I am thinking I want to take it out and read it whenever I want. I just re-read it, and I may read it again before I finally fall asleep at my computer.
