Fear of Darkness

Lost down a barren road

ditches and ready to erode

dim pale lightens my path

mist less fog engulfs like a wrath

in the distance pops up a castle

cliff it sits on looks so fragile

closer I get feel the darkness

lack of beauty demonstrates its starkness

looks so abandoned and secluded

wonder if the dog is included

moving closer that's no dog I see

it's massive wolf, it's getting scary

standing staring howling a loud

up towards the moon so proud

golden eyes fixed and piercing

drawn on me so very fiercely

looking to the moon as if to summon

large black bats all to common

they swoop and dive so erratic

the way they come together it is poetic

wings spread wide as they plunge

moving and dipping as they lunge

driving quickly to evade

moving around me like a brigade

a large loud thump on my car

the castle I saw is now not far

inching closer as if I'm forced

now I notice I'm on new course

large claws rip out the window

I guess I'm now off to limbo
