6:00 PM The songbird sang As it always had, Mellifluous and free Up in the apple tree 9:00 PM The cicadas shrieked & the wind howled As the setting sun Drew blood from the twilight 12:00 AM Shadows absorbed into the night Lingered in a foggy patch, Mingled with the gelid air & muffled a shriek. 3:00 AM There she lay, Pristine as a summer’s day Her soul swallowed by dark & pattered by the rain 6:00 AM The songbird sang As it always had Mellifluous and free Up in the apple tree

Swallowed By Dark
6:00 PM The songbird sang As it always had, Mellifluous and free Up in the apple tree 9:00 PM The cicadas shrieked & the wind howled As the setting sun Drew blood from the twilight 12:00 AM Shadows absorbed into the night Lingered in a foggy patch, Mingled with the gelid air & muffled a shriek. 3:00 AM There she lay, Pristine as a summer’s day Her soul swallowed by dark & pattered by the rain 6:00 AM The songbird sang As it always had Mellifluous and free Up in the apple tree
