    Poem Commentary

    This is a true story; Mr. Crowley was playing on my iPhone though, so play it if you got it to complete the experience.

    Evening Stroll

    The moon hangs before me
    Like a blood rusted scythe
    In cold contrast to the sky
    Consumed in clouds of black
    Briefly lit by lightning

    The chill in the evening air
    Seeps into my deepest flesh
    A mist sets in all around
    Hanging like death's shroud
    Damp as a moldy crypt

    The earth itself is blackened
    'Neath the night's starless veil
    Even the insects don't stir
    Nothing dares make a sound
    In this dark night hour

    How eery this place is
    Suiting more to a graveyard
    Than this neighborhood
    I push on, relishing the chill
    Of my October evening stroll
