Unseelie Wrights

By Circe Avalon

In the dark and creeping night
The monsters and demons fight
with all the twisted unseelie wrights
in the eerie Courts of Evernight

They dance and parade to warped songs
In their hallows and in their bogs
The spirits moan, spit and curse
And turn around and then disperse

In the darkened murky veil
We can see the spirits all to well
And with prancing sprites and sprigs
We all will know when the fun begins

The moon is full and heavy now
the children scream and wolfs howl
The pageantry of the wrights dine
On the pith and leave us the rind

Wear your bells and keep red ribbons tied
Always wear your clothes on the outside
Hold the iron close at all times
And your name you should always hide
