around my consciousness
like a slight headache...
as it attempts to get a foothold
on the night... its adversarial
relationship diminishes over
time as darkness adorns its
cloak for the night... a brisk
breeze terminates discussions
as the moon's argument is
always the same and watchful
eyes close their observations
since evening discloses nothing
in return for its silence...
calmness rules in the absence
of light directing its attention
nocturnal prowlers who
roam without permits in the
land that was theirs for the
taking once daylight could no
longer provide protection...
dusk is the interim referee
who is paid nothing for its
timeless responsibilities but who
stands ready to pounce on those
who do not heed the warning signs
that daylight is no longer
interested in saving time since
the war efforts are no longer
deciding who had lost the most.
