Premium Member Those Nightmares After Midnight
Have to keep the door closed (after that midnight treat) The coyote or wolf far off (too close) Can’t remember the plot (salsa has tightened its grip) upon awakening (not at all sure of that) the widening of the dark I open the door slowly to the shadows (a strange light and likeness) The wild animal is scarier enclosed, inhibited (it tears at my throat, claws my innards - from...

After Midnight … starts the life After one o’clock, the last train had gone My window is open, listening the silent the silence The distant, soft noise of the city…, so friendly I love it, this is the best time for writing. Inspiring night I love this life. Oh, the night. I am driven by the Dark I drink Oh night! Cheers! ...

Premium Member After Midnight Canvas
Shards of lambent moonlight drift across crumpled charcoal sky, gleaming snow clad laneways flaunt ancient ghostly footprint, dream world boisterous cabals lurk in blue ink shadows, glow worm street lights peer o’er nocturnal hour hush, swirling toll of dulcet midnight bells defrost black ice veil, mud stained slush from madcap drivers spray giggling sweethearts...

While attempting going to sleep after midnight
While attempting going to sleep after midnight... December 27th, 2023, the missus pounded mine posterior (she played paddywhack on me blimey buttucks) not only causing contusion, but flaying percussive rumpus, where the wild things are found yours truly feeling like a cross between a bongo drum and a Ubangi (also spelled Ubangui, Ubanghi, or Oubangui). Meanwhile good n plenty good vibrations (cue the Beach...

People have the wrong impression of your life; Seems you never liked your father’s second wife. You let the prayers of childhood go unsaid; Spent a humid adolescence in an unmade bed. Your sisters always tended to their chores, Then they’d have to find the time to finish yours. While you would pick narcissus...

Strange Magic After Midnight
In the early morning hours at the break of the new day Is ‘The witching hour”, it’s a magical time, they say A time where the veil between worlds becomes thin, Allowing you the ability to go deeper within Making it easier to connect with those on the other side A time where the shadows come out from where they...

After Midnight
my mournings come alive when she enters deep inside my heart, my passion, my mind time it travels far without daylight burning moments as they move on by I see her soot as it cinders my reprehensible lust bleeding upon a thousand broken glass slippers I slide her future past the tombs of tommorow caressing the carriage/carnage of life if only midnight would hold a glance through the glass graceful the gorgeous ballerina twirls and smiles...

Saint Frankenstein Mission After Midnight
A day like any other day rings out midnight again On the muffled peals hammered out loud by bells Not heard over the thunderous storms performance Simultaneously taking place outside the madness The Saint Frankenstein non-denominational church is cursed As the bells toll their cruel rings heard over the silent screams Every time a priest jumps from the high tower by...

It’s after midnight, as my muse carries a lot on my mind Putting words onto paper in my reach that I can find So many things that have dressed me for so long Always reviewing the balance of rights and wrong I was just a young girl, when I could view things this way Too early for my age, but...
