When
Darkness Falls
What is it about
the blackness of night
That most people
feel ill at ease
The absence of
light and dimly-lit places
A mind-creation of
Mephistopheles
What is it about
when the sun goes down
And over the fringe
of light
What transposes in
a person's mind
When the present,
has passed the edge of night
Seems there's no
problem, in walking through a cemetery
As long as it is,
sometime through the day
Take those very
same steps when it's dark
Allay that
apprehension and keep those fears at bay
Where do the
creatures of night spend their time
When the sun's on
the other side
In the
non-existence of illumination
Where do the
undesirables hide
Do ghosts and
goblins do more hauntings at night
Why can't a
werewolf, howl at the sun
And why are
vampires active, when there is no light
For they thrive,
when night-time has begun
Do they live by
themselves throughout the day
And where is it,
that they hide
Are they male or
female or somewhere between
Does a demon, take
a husband or bride
Why can't a ghoul
feed on it's corpses
Around lunch or
even, at breakfast time
Feeding in a
graveyard when there is no light
Seem to be, when it
is in it's prime
The shadow people
in order to appear
To make a shadow,
they have to have some light
And do demons of,
whatever their realm
Mostly come out at
night
So what is it about
when the sun goes down
Why do they emerge,
when blackness calls
Why don't they come
out in the middle of day
Instead of, “when
the darkness falls”
