The Approach Of Night Poem by Patti Masterman

The Approach Of Night



the approach of night:
new revolutions begin,
variations on a horizon.

the wife of the sun shows her lucid face
someone else is hollowing out stars
with floodlights from a car lot.

sometimes a voice bends uneasily in the breeze,
as children count sheep under woolly blankets

while tomorrow easily slips unseen
and waits behind a schoolboy's dream.
