the night

May 30, 2021




how does one describe the night?
the dark vastness of the sky?
the stars, as they shed a little light?
the moon, a crescent swelling to fullness until it shields itself again, cloaked in the shadows?

or perhaps one describes the night in what occurs rather than what is. 
the way people use the night as a way to hide their affairs.
how the darkest of the dark come out at night

maybe you could describe the night in such a way the day would be jealous. 
beautiful
intoxicating
something mysterious about the night
something hidden, waiting to be found
