Wow, it's been forever since I've reread this. Good point--and something I'll change if it ever goes any further. Thanks for the input!

The rhyming was random. I liked how it sounded. And like I said when I replied to your post on part three, this is supposed to be a darker look ...

Oh, yeah, I know 'blackness' and night are really overused. Just think of what I could've done--I was thinking of using a darkness of night/absence of light combo. Not so ...
