His excitement reached an unprecedented level
culminating in a deranged euphoria
that invigorated the evil energies within

He smiled in an unnervingly sinister manner
as he stepped forward into the darkness
He had been...

And I held onto Alkaiya, surrendering to fate for our death to be

Driving along a coastal road

With silver flecks, a sky to litter.
