Bare Naked #2

dark clouds hover
hover above and over my head

in the sky
midnight blue traces of you
look at me without eyes

around and away
beyond the ground, the horizon is where you play
in the orange and red that burns my head
and kills another day

beyond the ground
away and around
the horizon is where you're sound
in the black and blue of
the midnight moons' shadows
you can't be found
