still screaming mad kids after dark
found: circle of dead beetles ritual sacrifice
after dark the city smothers the broken
hypothesis: the city an evolving organism
passed down from time before: silence
smog rises to meet grey mist
snail graveyard the world slows down
autumn rain lures bodies to bed
after dark ghosts screaming at walls
