~ Moonless ~
I looked upon the sky at night
to find the source of bluish light
perhaps there'd be the moon to see
resting its easy gaze on me
Yet clouds and dusk was all to spy
like lonely smoke in the sky
rolling in the black and blue,
oh the things I saw anew.
How silly that I thought to see
the gleeful moon beam down at me
especially on these city streets
where solid buildings commonly meet
If I had walked the concrete roads
and looked upon the sky at night
there would be nothing to behold
but buildings and buildings and city light.
