Black and white cover of the novel 'Waterloo Midnight' by Sherman Oaks, featuring a distressed, close-up portrait of a person's face with intense eyes, torn and textured surface.

Waterloo Midnight

They hide in plain sight,

in schools and institutions,

In televisions and phones, inside dreams.

Waterloo Midnight

A soul lost underground unearths

buried history, forgotten crimes,

And secrets demanding to be known

Unleashing power some call magic.

Waterloo Midnight

A feast of human life interrupted

By punishment begging to be delivered

After its messenger is finally found.

Waterloo Midnight

They meet at midnight

To secure their unholy power

Until prey becomes predator

And life as it was will never be again.

Waterloo Midnight

And life as it was will never be again.

““““–"Cheers. But only when we say so."
