Sins After Midnight

SINS AFTER MIDNIGHT

dig deeper dagger
whilst i hold the golden stake
crowd shuffles nervously
cautiously applauding
sins whispered in the dark

It seems poetic justice that they spent the entire evening jabbing at someone else only to have the dagger find them at the very end. Nicely done Kim.

Perhaps an angel handed them the mischievous envelope! Won't they learn to entertain!

Thanks so much, Cheryl! All of their blah blah blah...then they drop the ball. Perhaps an angel handed them the wrong envelope?
