Analysis of The day’s end
Chief Speak-a-little-French 1980 (Calgary)
In between the twilight
And the breaking of dawn
I hide in the shadows of
night
Robin Goodfellow
Does all his work at
night
Robin, also known as Puck -
is my alter-ego -
A figure of the shadows
And farmhouses
And as the new dawn breaks
I disappear
Like a vampire dies
