I sawunder the cover of a crescent moon
around the flames of long-lasting doom
I saw them again, sisters of gloom
bare as the day of naissance
happy beneath the black hoodI gulped
under the cover of darkness
these ladies threw their legs
happy to destroy happiness
elated under the service
of evil in their presenceI hid
evil's goat head shone as white as the moon
fitted in its black hood, it crooned
and the ladies sat silent, with bated breath
just like me, wondering what would come next
wondering whose body would be dissectedI squirmed
evil's taloned hand rose, a bit too slow
it pointed at something on the road
all heads turned and my eyes widened
surely, it couldn't be me, for they've never seen
one of their long-dead victimsI turned. . .
