Nightly {stream of Consciousness}

Drops of oil
Scar the soul
Scare the mind
Steal the life

Dead
Cold

Frigid and still
Creeping vines
Inching in the dark
Sealed rosebuds
Fall to the ground
Trembling in the wind

Vultures
Beak and Talon
Silhouette against the moon
Darkness under the wing

Tick
Tock

Midnight

Tick
Tock

Die
