In a dozy West Virginian town,
An urban legend takes flight,
Holding dominion over a pleasant night sky,
Over highways and young couples,
It’s never in true focus,
A humanoid shape obscured,
Huge crimson lanterns for eyes,
And wings shimmering with prophecy,
Bird or moth or demon?
Nobody shall ever know,
Wings simply flutter,
And bridges fall.

    I feel like I’ve heard about this. Is this about the Mothman? You wrote epically. It’s strange and I wonder if you’ve experienced this. I’ve been having some strange dreams about bizarre creatures and overcoming them all July. Have you experienced this? It’s so weird haha šŸ˜‚ I might just be watching too many weird videos haha šŸ¤£šŸ˜†
