Clouds cover the moon tonight.
Grey shrouds
Woven
Over slate.
A luminescent darkness.
Borrowed light from borrowed light.
The sky has weight tonight.
Weight upon the eyes.
Tangible weight upon the thoughts,
Upon the memory of infinite starlit skies.
Strangely, I rise up.
I stand.
I am lifted past the weight.
The shroud wrapped sky
Reminds me
Of the moon
Hidden just behind.
