Fleeing in the dead of night,
fleeting form, out of sight.
Shifting mist of hider's delight,
day is coming, death is bright....

Throw away your lines and hooks,
For to catch a fish at the dead of night,
You don’t need those ‘how to books’
Just use a stick of gelignite....

In the dead of night
I hold a boxing match in my mind
and I can never be sure who the winner is
but some mornings
I wake up
black and blue...

Listen to poem:
The bridge is covered, has no light
all who pass over are shaded 
eclipsed by day, in dead of night
unseemly notice evaded
by keeping all's well, out of sight....

We'll vibe tales to heat our bones
Singing in the dead of night
Passionate lips caress
While igniting the power of mind
Reality all nonsense...

The Compass
North has pointed south
And every way between
'Till arise the sun
Light remains unseen
But look! The stars above!
They will guide my way
Through the dead of night
'Till arise the day...

Nothing Left To Give
So many stand unfit to bear the candle
where i would raise the torch
Gathered in their silent masses,
they watch the blaze adorn
my circle in the dead of night;
i've come to sound the horn...

Paul Revere
In the dead of night rode Paul Revere.
   For two lanterns told him the British were near.
   His call to arms and the enemy fled.
   The Redcoats retreated,as many lay dead.

Premium Member tears in the dead of night
sounds of violin crying out in the dark
desperate for one solitary ray of moonlight
string along all lost souls who stray in the night

Snow
I looked out the window and I saw the snow 
the ground wasn't dark instead it did glow 
and though there's no sun the world now seems bright 
because there's snow on the floor in the dead of night...

The Belarusian Play
The protesters put their symbol on the freezing water in the dead of night
for the authorities to try to get it out of the frozen pond at the break of day. 
The smartness is playing with the stupidity....

A Terrible Dream
Awaken in a dead of night,
I dreamt of a child dying.
While setting on my bed,
My spirit started crying.
I went back to sleep,
Not feeling very good.
While dreaming all about,
A death within my hood....

Second Chances
Lost in the dead of night,
Looking for the light.
Am I close to the shore?
Or am I so far away that I'm lost?
Hopefully my being it wont cost.
Come to me and guide me there,
Tell me that you still care....

godless
heartless
heathens
lunging out
from the sidelines
brutally attacking
unsuspecting
victims
doing the devil’s work
in the dead of night
