Machinery Night

Downhill, an Abyss,
Defined by the Horizon,
Collides with skyline panoramic eve.
Ignition pierces Darkness
Through a thousand

Glass Cubes,
Stacked into stairwell walls.
Ascending stories high,
Crystal-encased artifical flame
Echoes the Stars of Night.

Towers of stone
Standing Guard,
Bellow clouds of steam
Lapped into translucent wires
By the Gravity of Moonlight

In a moment of lurid Mirage.
Smoke pours skyward,
From dull baked columns,
Stirring the Surface of the Night
To drown the Stars in Silhouette.
