The Edge of Night

It comes to me 
on the edge of the blue 
a twilight scream from dusk.

A warning that
when the sun comes up 
enigmatic searches 
will thrust.

A hunt, 
a sleuth-hound 
An eerie lust 
to uncover the nights scream we trust

Deep and dark and a remarkable poem. This one brings a cold mist with it hovering silently, eerily as the sun rises illuminating the scene which is even more ghastly than expected. Nicely done

Perfect. I love it. Giggling my donkey off - as A S S falls to asterised censorship and heaven forbid the EFF. But get your ghost busters ready there will be a haunting come Thursday.

Then clutch your pen of darkly ink and drag us to the morbid brink where shadows weep and fingers claw and write your favourite for us all

Horror is my favourite genre to teach actually. Perhaps I need a spine tingling adventure.
