Creatures of afternoon

by DarkLight   Feb 20, 2012


The creatures of afternoon light the bonfires of their imagination and hold up the sky with the gossamer wires of the waning light.

The creatures of afternoon know that they should not speak for speech is an atavism from other ages of the day.

Even though their words perhaps might sustain the night.

    This is shrouded with real poetic concept, one has to keep reading it on and on to assimilate. The creature of afternoon seem to me to be, someone, peoples or a philosopher or someone of sort. I agree with Everlasting, been careful before talking. I think the creature is talking in parables for people to listen. He knows when to say what and where, very cautious. Making his words understood and what he said can make someone happy or settle the bone of contention between people. Written articulately, i like your concept, short but the impact is strong. Blessings to you, Cheers!
