Silent Alarm for Friend David Threadgold

The darkness hosts a multitude
of atavistic memories.
which influence our attitude
Towards the things we cannot see.

The hunting owl which quietly
on noiseless wings seeks out his prey.
His night tuned eyes can clearly see
as if it was as bright as day.

Some see him as an enemy
and view his passage with alarm.
Although he’s acting naturally
with no intent to cause them harm.

Men fear the dark which seems to be
a breeding ground for ancient fears
embedded inescapably
in memories from their forebears.

Their fear of being eaten by
some marauding predator
which pounces on them from the sky.
Man will recall for evermore.
