Something Is Not Right

The moon hangs low tonight. In the winds of an evil tide. Clouds ghostly roam the night. Trees hiss as I walk by Starlight opens up the night. Darkness shimmers at the river side. Cold lapping on groaning wood Owl screech pierces life over dead mud. Reflected silhouette is what I see The cold dark figure that is me No warmth, no light. Something just isn’t right, something else is here this night.
