Here on out

must sleep come at night?

how your eyes act at night
to gloom or to excite
is your own cup of tea
none of mine to foresee.

the owl may stay awake
a witch may watch and pray
a beast is burnt at stake
a drunk may slumber stay

the night is what it is
noise, rest or death at best
a puzzle in a quiz
the night is what it is.
