just before the sun goes down
just before dark
with shades of black & brown
just before the sun sinks into its hole
come the voices of those that have no soul
voices of violence
from the past
voices of nightmares
determined to last
voices of terror
despairing in the dark
voices of insanity
at its most stark
just before the shadows fall
just before dark
when the ghosts come through the wall
just before the clouds bleed red
come the voices of the dead

You know that I love everything you write, but, this one is definitely over the top, especially after the meaning becomes clear. I've gotta rank this one up there with "I, too, sing America". I know that may sound preposterous, but, the heart loves what it loves. Intriguing. Peace.
Thank you! That's gotta be the best compliment on my writing I have ever received!
