Lies lies

Lies lies they're all lies
Dancing around this
Shadowed sky.
The inky shell of shadow
Bugs
Absorb light of
Deepening dusk.
Never to return
A radiance
Dissipating among
The swarm.

Empty empty so very empty
A miserable city.
Slinking in a place so dark
This emptiness binds and
Tears apart.

Cold cold everything is cold
Swirling through this
Hapless night.
Long silver fingers spindle
Thin
Touch those souls
Left behind.
Inching across the
Restless mind.

This trap set and silent.
Waiting.

Lies lies dancing
Through the
Blackened skies.
