Excerpt
Excerpt: The Children of the Night For those that never know the light, The darkness is a sullen thing; And they, the Children of the Night, Seem lost in Fortune?s winnowing. But some are strong and some are weak, -- And there?s the story. House and home Are shut from countless hearts that seek World-refuge that will never come.
