The Dusk-Dark Folk.

The night-time fell,
And dusk set in,
And dark began its rule.
The air grew damp,
Deep alleys: slick,
For evening, this was fuel.

The darkness roared,
The evening laughed,
The antics, O, were nigh.
The black cats ran,
The rats made haste,
And blue bats graced the sky.

The daemons seethed,
The witches laughed,
The moon was red and dull.
The graveyard sung,
The dead arose,
A hand in search of skull.

The night crept on,
The warlocks spelled,
Concoctions filled the air.
The magick rose,
The air grew full,
Ghosts danced without a care.

The dawn came through,
The night was old,
The evening settled down.
They fell asleep,
The dusk-dark folk,
For night was all their crown.

Hello?

#nightdwellers This is my time, In the dead of night, Where demoniac beings, Corrupt the light.

#nightdwellers It ate the darkness, It killed the moon. It scared away the vampires. It bought about their doom. It stopped the spider webs. It made the werewolves run. It ended the witches brewing.

Chasing Shadows

Creep through the twilight woods, Full of iridescent illusions, Darkness laced around your hood. A night of hunting has begun, Full of moonlit mysteries, Where sense becomes undone.

Must Be Vampires.

#NightDwellers Cloaked figures and pale faces, They glide through mist and fog, There is no sound, no evidence, As they drift through the smog.

Welcome To Midnight.

As it draws close to midnight, I wake up, stretch and yawn, My limbs are cracking noisily, As if my bones are torn.

The Cave.

#nightdwellers The mist creeps over the forest A quietness surrounds. The full moon is at its purest, lighting this sacred ground.

Shadowplay

If you feel your pulse is quickening. Don't be too perturbed. If the atmosphere is thickening. There's something you've disturbed. Movements fleet and darting. All around the room.

The Listeners-Poem

This was my inspiration for the series I wrote :) THE LISTENERS By Walter de la Mare "Is there anybody there?" said the Traveller, Knocking on the moonlit door; And his horse in the silence champed...
