Night
November 1, 2011
As darkness sweeps across the city like a bird in flight,
As the lights of every home in town succumb to the fight,
And as the streets are abandoned with no-one in sight,
And as a child closes his eyes to the blankness of white,
This is the sweet taste of darkness; this is night.
