| Orsen Wells in Touch of Evil |
In the Dark
evil lurks
hiding in the shadows
off an alley
or the bottom of the basement stairs.
Nightmares
are in grainy black and white
colored forever
by old movies
watched when I should be in bed.
Evil comes
forever unlit
with only the color
of blood red
dripping from an illuminated blade.
Surely
no bad can happen
if the lights were turned on
or stupid blonds
would kick of their high heels
and run for the light.
