DP : Evil

I posted this originally a few months ago, but after seeing the Daily Prompt for today I thought I’d reblog it for that. Hope you like it.

Which voice to heed,
as night draws in
and darkened quest
with joy begins?

Which coat to wear,
which gloves to don,
so artful hands
aren’t bled upon?

Which road to walk,
with shadows cast
that hide the face
and evils past?

Which body warm,
with eyes that fear
should snare my gaze
and disappear?

Which words to say,
as victim cries
while dark desire
I satisfy?

Will it be you,
this fateful night,
to be snuffed out
like candlelight?

Be wary, friend,
tread where you dare,
for one dark night,
I may be there.
