Walk Through The Dark
The stars adorn the night sky
through the canopy of limbs aloft
the alter of the lupine lords on high
spawns shadows in my path that oft’
sway and move in the wind.
The rain of yellows and reds scatter
as leaves descend, land, and tend
to fall with crunch and patter,
all serve to obscure the path.
and rocks jutting from the side,
with downed branches that prey
on the traveler and hide
the broken bodies where they lay.
