Creatures of the Night...A Poem
Dance with mindless zombies
It’s easy enough to do
Shuffle and flop your body
They will never know it’s you
Dine out with elegant vampires
In flickering soft candlelight
Dress in dark gothic attires
And avoid their deep bite
Party hard with the wolf pack
Under the moons eerie glow
Don’t show fear and look back
Or the animal side will show
Entertain a witch’s coven
Around a roaring fire bright
But be careful of each word spoken
In the power of the night
Follow the grinning demons
Down the winding path
Make no pack or bargains
To start the hellish bloodbath
Laugh with the wild fae
In nature’s own great halls
Be carefree and truly play
But beware their seductive call
Talk with spirits of old
Beside crumbling tombstones
Stay strong and forever bold
Or your soul they will forever own
Explore the paths winding
Between the dark and the light
Meet them all so appealing and charming
So keen to excite and delight
But beware the side that they don’t show
As they let you deeper in
Knowledge and power they willingly bestow
All given with a friendly grin
So keep the secrets of the dark
Even in the shine of the day
Hold what you learn close to your heart
And never will you be their prey
