Wild in the Night-Light

Where beasts come alive

in the mettle

of their existence

shrieking and

howling after an

evening

of spooky delight.

They come

as creatures hungry

to devour lesser ones

the rush of feathery flight

& claws in the night-

from the cacophony

of raucous noise

comes a sweet and

soothing melody of loons

and lonesome cries.
