Night Girl

Shadows slumber as the sun goes down

And Little May Susy walked into town

The darkness blended in with her curls

And George Hart watched for little girls

Storms stretched slowly across the night

Though little May did not feel fright

And as George Hart watched from his room

May's black eyes stirred with gloom

Stars broke clouds in the stormy sky

And George Hart smiled with a steamy eye

May smelled his evil with his witty turn

Her hands glowed and began to burn

She stopped George Hart's sour face

With hands she raised in a heated space

And as fire fled from pale fingers to skin

George Hart never looked at little girls again
