Gradually, the air
grows colder
as the sky falls
into darkness.
Now our life-giving
star is eclipsed
behind her
counterpart.

Only silhouettes
remain of the
towering mountains,
outlined by a dusk-like
orange, fading now
Into a deep, almost
blue purple

Central in the sky,
A deep void encompassed in
a hot ring of white.
