last night, the sky

looked bruised all over, right before predicted snow
every other west end house was lamp lit from within,
like fairy kingdoms magnified and furnished.
an old gentleman on his porch pipe smoking,
otherwise, quiet, quite still, and darkradiant, so
I could see all the way to the edge of portlandtown.
last night, the sky
was limitless until this morning,
when daytime always imposes its borders.
