Twilight Terrors (Curtal Sonnet Version)

Slipping from the tight grasp of lasting day

For the cool clutches of the lively night

Pause and lean in closer to hear them say

Follow us; shake of your contagious fright

Just abandon everything, come and play

Slip into our state of mind, forget him

It’s nicer here, but no perfect per say

We’re dancing round and round the very rim

But do not be fooled by our witty grins

Reflections of him in fiery eyes

                Don’t live by his sins

Twilight Terrors (Shakespearian Sonnet Version)

Slip from the tight grasp of lasting day

For the cool clutches of the lively night

Lean in closer to hear them say

Follow us, shake of your fright

Abandon everything, come and play

Slip into our state of mind, forget him

It’s nicer here, but not perfect per say

We’re dancing round and round the very rim

But do not be fooled by our witty grins

Reflections of him in fiery eyes

The end of walking on needles and pins

Hush now, no one hears your pitiful cries

It never ends, the terror of twilight

Horror is real, help always just out of sight
