That incipient moon seemed to rise

Slowly, surely, right before my eyes.

It melted down the darkness of the night

And yet, somehow, things were not right.

As the world evolved away

There was nothing left of the day.

So many new shapes did appear

Without any touch of humanity near.

Author's Note: I took a long walk along the beach the other night.... this was one of the results....
