Descending Darkness…


 


Why the hell is getting dark so early?


The darkness does descend like me when surly,


By eight the nightlights are on,


By nine I cannot see my dog out on the lawn…


 


No don’t tell me,


This dark thing has something to do with global warming,


From the gods could this be nothing but a warning,


I just thought that in August it stayed light later,


Should I be worried as the winter is early forming…?


 


Such fear does darkness invoke,


If I could I would take a toke,


No more fear would then I feel,


Off as well then would my clothes I peel,


Out into the darkness to frolic nekkid,


Hope no one out there would then my virginity steal…

I'm getting out my binoculars!...lol (I think the shortened days have something to do with that Big Wave that happened in Dec. I remember they said the earth was shaken off its orbit by so many degrees, and that it changed our time [somewhat]) YOU'RE A VIRGIN???!!!??....LOL

I am duly impressed, DW; running nekkid through the Barrens for 300 years now, and still a virgin. Your resolve is truly commendable. Keep Up the Good Work.

PS The increasing early summer darkness is part of the Apocalypse, I think.
