Once upon a midnight blue
There came a tale of sorrow true
Upon the night a dark wind blew
Trouble came in lines of three
Rushing forth like waves at sea
Nary a moment left to flee
Looking out into the ‘verse
Signs appeared as a curse
Shadows formed into a hearse
Flaming stars fell from the skies
Spearing through their heats like lies
Tracing tracks of tears they cried
When the night was finally done
Those who remained felt only numb
Wondering what was left to come
