Maundy Midnight

by Alex Westhoff - Not entered

Midnight rolls around again,
like a soft blanket
comforting, caressing my chilled body.
Another waking hour
stripping the darkness of all it holds.
a rug, a curtain, a couch
prisoners until dawn
my dreams as well become creatures of the dark
roaming where the wild things are
and my body 
lets my mind run free
into the night

Reason for writing:

    None given
