Witching Hour
In the witching hour's eerie embrace, On All Hallows' Eve, when spirits brace, I find myself in a darkened wood, Where whispers of ancient evil stood. The clock strikes twelve, the night's black heart beats, A chorus of leaves dance in the streets, The moon, a ghostly silent watcher, Hides behind the clouds, the night grower. A lyric...

Death, you're freed; With one taste define nightlife; Now I will take you, drip for me as I taste and then erase your anguish; Give yourself to the Witching hour; Strawberries decadent in moonlight, it was not the apple that Eve wanted....

What Of The Witching Hour
They project at night in the wee hours looking to see what they can harvest Be still so that you can grow to know peace or else the lessons reaped will be the hardest They don't know your reach travels farthest way past any body in the system These rites practiced are the wrong way to go as they're lacking insight &...

Whatever happened to the twelve o ‘clock rambler, nocturnal venturesome brushstroke sort, they face whirlwind snowfall, freezing ice, while others brazenly squirm, not for stoic diarist this threadbare exit, exodus of the half-hearted humbug, but ironclad ilk stubbornly remain, eyes and ears are substitute antennas, of this genus, genie, genius, glow worm ghost, peaceful prowlers with pen on queue, velvet moon worlds sidereal captured, crescendo of...

Whatever happened to the twelve o ‘clock rambler, nocturnal venturesome brushstroke sort, they paint sound and city pastel, never at a loss for inspiration, weather neither bar nor barrier, in the face of whirlwind snowfall, freezing ice, torrential downpour, within themselves, he, she, they plod on, hardship is adopted, never cast aside, while others brazenly squirm, wallow in uproarious denial, wilt before the slightest storm, taking...

The Witching Hour
The hands on the clock face read the time as 3:01 Which means the witching hour has begun Its a time when witches and warlocks unite Casting spells under the full moons bright light Casting a circle to protect all those within Using the power from the veil being thin Calling and conjuring up helpful souls Spirits that will help them reach...

3:00am; The hour of old souls & deep thinkers. Dreamers though we're wide awake. Loud hearts & silent eyes, our every thought the night to take. Bewitching ours, the Witching hour, what mystery awaits. ~ 2020...

It is the witching hour. There are no breezes in a windowless house. There are no shadows in a cave devoid of light. There are no dreams in a sleepless night. It is the witching hour. When our endangered psyche roams. When we are captured by pernicious spells. When we are easy prey for rogue chieftains. It is the witching hour. When warlords game...

I wake up at three every morning The witching hour Is it the cat? Or something else? Maybe it is so I can have some thinking time Before the others get up. I hear a voice smirk. You live alone silly! If you think I can go back to sleep now You are as crazy as I am....

Witching Hour
Your memory... like hands around my neck, taking my breath away. Your name on my lips, as if I had nothing else to say. My final moment, my last prayer: Please! Lord! Make his arms my resting place....

On the bank of the Mississippi River under a cottonwood tree, watching the river's water flow; a young man holds a thin hickory fishing pole in hand, to be alone with his thoughts, seeping deep into the delicate, soothing, murmur of the river. He came from a poor indigent family. Life was a bit obtuse for him. School was...

Witching Hour
Awakened, in the dead of night Seized by a feeling of fright I struggle to catch my breath My heart pounding in my chest Surely my thoughts are disillusioned Glimpsing a shadow translucent I say to myself with nervous snicker The drowsy mind is a trickster Over my head, I pull the blanket Suddenly something grabs my ankle Upright I sit in utter horror Praying I...
