“The sky, it was ashen and sober,’” Abilene intoned. “‘The leaves, they were crisped and seer. Twas night in the lonesome October of my most immemorial year.”

― Richard Laymon, In the Dark

“Like one, that on a lonesome road
Doth walk in fear and dread,
And having once turned round walks on,
And turns no more his head;
Because he knows, a frightful fiend
Doth close behind him tread.”
― Samuel Taylor Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

― Jeremy Bates, Suicide Forest
