Challenge
///// Nightdwellers 'Beginning Line' Challenge (Jun 1st) /////
Your mission, should you choose to accept, is to submit a piece of literature inspired by all that is nocturnal, gothic and darkly (it can be anything from poetry to a short story) that begins… ‘SHADOWS SLUMBER AS THE SUN GOES DOWN’… Tag it #nightdwellers #beginningline. I look forward to reading all your posts…
Creatures Of The Night
Shadows slumber as the sun goes down
A melancholy shadow besets the town
The creatures of the night make their way to the streets
As the sinners arise the saints fall into their sheets
Ignorance from the hardness of real life
Daytime people live without strife
The creatures of the night are left to sow
Nothing good comes from what the moonlight shadows grow
This is the way the world will live
Second thoughts are for the privileged
Shadows slumber no longer
The creatures of the night hunger
