When night falls
all is darkness
The enemy within
makes a quick appearence
it rapidly kicks in
The animals can see us
Feel our presence they
are enlightened by the landscape
and can rapidly display
a willingness to give ground
Or tortuously to fight
It is within their judgement
the darkness and the light.
