Something Wicked This Way Comes....

Hello All!

It has been a while since I held a good dark contest!!

+++What I Want+++

Imagery
Depth
Metaphor
Alliteration
QUALITY.

Now - there are NO restrictions on subject; DARK can be translated in many ways - dark love, sadness, pain, and then you have the eerie side of it all....

No stories please!!!

You may use the image as your prompt, though it is just there for effect.
