nocturnal violence

shadows slumber as the sun goes down

the twisted wind makes a wicked sound

blazing eyes jerk open in the dark

as a howl signifies another taken down mark

black spindly fingers creep up spines

while the air is thick with the taste of dark red wine

another scream is met with silence

after all it is just another nocturnal violence
