Dusk in a place of darkling green

The sky cracks                                       A company of drops
as if cataracts shave                             curtain the horizons
stones to ice. Some                                still promising their
shimmering awakes                               aubades, morning
night’s withdrawing                              songs gone awry
reverberations                                        below diminishing
of storm clouds                                      flecks of sound.
shot off, like                                          ‘Shhhhhhhhhh
a table cloth                                            hhhhhhhhhhh
inexpertly deprived                                hhhhhhhhhhh’ –
of its surface.                                         Dimmening leaves offer.
