Howl at the moon / Holler
Howl at the moon
Battle the torturous night
Struggle against the all enveloping darkness,
Don't bask in the moonlights' hazy pallor.
Let go of the insanity
Dance with abandon,
With two fingers up at propriety.
Embrace the light
And welcome reality,
Return from the shadows.
Set yourself free
Holler
Holler at the light
Creep back into the safety
Hide amongst the gloom
Raise a fist in defiance
Repel those who invade
Guard your fortress of gloom.
Accept that you are doomed
And delight in others displeasure
With one finger up to society
Battle against expectations
Let there be shade,
From the daily slaughter

Dear Lou,
Could these be the thoughts of Soul Keeper? I loved these lines:
Accept that you are doomed
And delight in others displeasure
With one finger up to society
Battle against expectations
Let there be shade,
From the daily slaughter
I haven't any suggestions for the work, only appreciation.
love, Cat
