Midnight feast.

Midnight feast.

By Bahr

There’s a slight rhythm the stars take,

between the hushed blues of the skies 

and under the covers of everyone who lies 

down into the withered underbelly of the night.

The notes between each blinding ray ring out

to each individual who remains awake.

A delightful charm takes a step between every head,

a strum of gold that breaks into brass 

breathes into their beds.

Oh, such soft-spoken sounds envelope what silence remains.

It eats away at the quiet and spits back a varnished bone.

Yet remains hungry for those awake.
