Oh night

Today I feel like a poem.

I have welcomed you always

As honey on a cloud

near the door of dreams

Or like an usher in a movie theater

Dapper attire

Living on the pulse of alpha waves

and obscure desire

Now you look like a bone faced ghoul

Poking around where he’s not wanted

Watching me like my Lucky does

When he’s waiting for a crumb to fall

Don’t tease me to fright

Return to your shadow shack

Til you can act right
