Creature Of The Night

Let me tell you about a story, a creature of the night

like a shadow, a ghost out of sight

nothing to see but those owl-like eyes

a creature like no other

no other could match

the tale-tailed, tall tale not many could catch

A beast among beasts, a beast that's free

free to be the beast, she's meant to be

swallowed by the night, so no one could see her

she became the night's shadow, what a creature

she's as black as the night, as pretty as the light

as left as she is right, and is polite despite the will to fight

this is the tale of the creature of the night
