Demon Sunset…
Wafting slate grey swirls of cloud, by dull amber and peach
Infused, trouble the evening Porthtowan sky
At sunset. A freaky demon mask emerges, a silhouette
From the dark threat of an orange-tipped mass
And the wispy figure into the pallid, yellowy glare
Of the palette rises and oozes above the sinister ocean…
Curling, the evil intentioned creature attempts to reach
The sun and eclipses it until the Porthtowan sky
Turns black, like the glimmering velvet sea, beset
By creams, ash-greys and insipid blues which harass,
Twisting about their deity, which continues to stare
Until the dervish dissipates and fades, slowing its motion…
