See No Evil - Ten Word Challenge

The halcyon days of my youth were full of exuberant teenagers,
with a fire built and music blaring they,  
danced under the crepuscular light,
with loud drunken sonorous, 
much to the annoyance of the local opulent farmer who,
 was cynical about the drunks not moving from his land,
then an eerie Penumbra silenced the drunks,
they sensed a visceral fear of change among them,
while they sat in a desultory mess,
jealousy was not too far behind.
