Night
Eternal night of the mind,
The stars the end of black widows legs,
The faces of passers by twisted in grotesque glances,
The threat of being alone forever,
The sweat of beads running through threads,
The unmade bed,
The pacing of policemen in the wings,
The bird's gonna sing,
The prayers of christians the world over unheard,
The damnation loosed upon the earth,
The dying of the light,
The fainting in fright,
The end of lies,
You're all in for a surprise.
