The snow blurs like

an icy light

and darkness is so bright

against the pale moon's pike.


The wind blows through the night

in an untimely war

and the old woman's lore

of demons scare the children's eyes tight.


There's a howl

of the nearby wolves that prey

on innocents' blood. And on the trail's way

it is marked with a pungent foul.


The night is so long

compared to the quick beating of fears,

while the forest of tears

does not seem to be proven wrong.
