Upskirting Venus.


                                   *

            (

     The crescent moon was a

     concave optic, suspended

     beneath a visible Venus in

    the twilighted sky, at sunset.


On the horizon, a ship at anchor

  impersonated a perched village,

shimmering in a desert of darkness.


Lesser stars arrived and peered

deviously through perforations of

the celestial colander, because it

was officially by then, nightie time.
