ponder our night

where are my stars?

no longer glory

night darkness gray rather than black

Milky Way not even skim

meteor showers desiccated

city lights reflected in clouds

the man in the moon depressed

man in the moon so depressed

city lights light up the clouds

meteor showers desiccated

Milky Way no longer even skim

night darkness gray rather than black

no longer night’s glory

where are Nature’s stars?
