Ballad of war
Because previously was lost
night
like some people may instead
wanted to fill world with something
smoke for darkness or lure or luxury
the scene went so dramatically
in the evening the noise
is most heard or the moon
and the stars started to appear
and crickets and nighttingales
and owls and bats and almost
the nocturnals were already dammed?.
