Trees line the deserted sidewalk,
their leaves in vibrant hues,
hiding the chirping birds from sight.
Where are the people?
Why are the stores shuttered?
What secrets are we not being told?
Should we leave this town,
or wait for nightfall?
For then, we’ve been told,
the town of Oasis lets loose.
The original residents will
come down from their hill.
Will we see the famous dark shadows
swoop down upon the town?
Do we want to see them?
Be careful what you wish for.
For The Dead love to play.
