 something wicked this way comes...

...and with it's path
it does succumb
to all which is
and hasn't been:
a path at all.

but he who comes
in the eve
of the night
and in the light
the makers dawn
is in the light
and we as folk
who see the right
are not the ones
who have such sight.

and for such jest
there is a test
a thoughtful one
who does just so
the faithful shoe
that sits alone
in the foreground is the clue.

I like the way you processed this one. I thought this would finish much higher.

This had one of my two top scores (the other went to the same title :). I think it carries the title very well, great story and image, great job!

While the smoke is interesting and leads me into the "something", the image lacks some in execution to meet the title IMHO. My eye gets totally lost in the in-focus area behind the "something". A park? I see benches, maybe a playground? Oh it doesn't matter. I also do not get the wickedness from the image itself, only from the title. Without the title, I just assume it's just a smoker taking a midnight stroll. Not sure what the shoe is all about. Maybe I'm doing too much to compare this directly to the other incredible image that is equally titled (which admittedly is not fair), but it doesn't carry the same emotion - and I think that's what this needs.
