in the stillness of night
Once prismatic brilliance;brilliant only through borrowed light;
alone again in darkness, glum;
gleams, instant companion of night --
blind to grief and deaf to joy,
save by pristine thought, on lonely height:
a lone, canine howl reports and echoes,
as nocturnal critters hide, out of sight.
